How to have full control of navigation and visual customization while building an app

Full control of navigation and visual customization means deciding, during the app's own build process, where each button leads and what each screen looks like — with no developer needed. In Jestor, this control is available to anyone who builds on the system, not just technical teams.

The problem with fixed navigation defined by third parties

When a system's navigation and appearance are fixed, defined by whoever coded the tool, any adjustment turns into a request that has to wait in a technical team's queue.

Free navigation: you decide where each button leads.
Full visual customization: colors, icons, layout, no code.
Immediate adjustments: no waiting for approval or a technical queue.
Accessible to any builder: no prior technical knowledge required.

How to adjust navigation and appearance in Jestor

Enter build mode: for the app you want to adjust.
Organize blocks and sections: in whatever way makes sense for the process.
Set the destination of each button: without writing code.
Adjust colors, icons, and layout: to match the company's identity.
Publish the change: immediately available to users.

How to configure it in Jestor: anyone with access to build mode can reorganize navigation and appearance at any time, even after the app is already in use by the team.

Why choose Jestor to give the team autonomy?

Decentralizing control over navigation and appearance reduces reliance on a technical team just to change a color or reorganize a screen — a common bottleneck in legacy systems that require a support ticket even for simple adjustments.

Can two color conditionals be applied at the same time to a single indicator?

Yes. Jestor indicators accept two simultaneous color conditionals — one for the data and another for the background — letting you, for example, turn the number red when it's below a value and the background a different color when it's above another value, all on the same indicator.

How to make app icons in the side menu show up with no background color for a minimalist look?

In Jestor's side menu, you can turn off the colored background behind app icons, leaving only the icon visible — a more minimalist look for anyone who prefers a cleaner menu. Why does removing the icon background change the menu experience? By default, every app icon in the side

Can a blurred background be used in a form to keep a background image readable?

Yes. Among Jestor's form style options is a blur option for the background: when there's an image behind the form, the blur softens that image to improve the readability of the content, while keeping the image visible behind it. Why does a background image without blur

How to group apps by department inside a custom app navigation?

In Jestor's custom navigation tool, you can create sections — like finance, HR, or specific teams — and group the apps related to that department inside each one, building a kind of personalized home right inside the app itself. Why does grouping by department help larger teams find their way
