    Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide for receiving code associated with a representation of a user interface (UI) element, wherein the code is included in a project in an integrated development environment (IDE). The subject technology further provides for determining a set of dynamically generated editors for modifying the representation of the UI element based on an analysis of the code at least in part on contextual information related to the UI element, and querying for a set of actions associated with the selection, the set of dynamically generated editors being generated based at least in part on an analysis of the code. In addition, the subject technology displays a tool for graphically modifying the representation of the UI element, the tool including a set of graphical elements corresponding to the determined set of dynamically generated editors, where the graphically modifying transforms code associated with the representation of the UI element.

    Abstract: Embodiments provide techniques for creating an adaptive user interface for an electronic device. In one embodiment the instructions configure one or more processors to perform operations including displaying, in an application development environment, a user interface of a graphical representation of the electronic device, the graphical representation associated with one or more configurations, each configuration including a set of properties; while displaying the graphical representation of the electronic device, receiving a value for a first property; in response to receiving the value for a first property, determining that the graphical representation of the electronic device is associated with a first configuration; creating a first sub-configuration of the first configuration, the first sub-configuration inheriting one or more properties in the set of properties from the first configuration; applying the value for the first property to the first sub-configuration; and updating the user interface of the graphical representation of the electronic device.
