In Chapter 6, "Cooking" Your First ROM, we had a look at a few heavily-customized versions of Android, and lots of these customizations were related to the User Interface. UI customization is a tricky topic due to the personal taste factor involved: many users love a "pure Android" UI, many other users love the idea of a "different Android" UI, far from the mainstream UI experience.
In this section, we are giving you free will and the chance to choose between a vanilla Android and a customized one. You will learn how to make small customizations, to the status bar or to the colors, for example, or big customizations, like adding a new item to the Settings menu to properly set up the custom features of your custom ROM.
