App for building custom JS & CSS for Canvas LMS themes

Using this application you can easily create plug-ins that add/modify functionality of the Canvas LMS UI.

This package provides the following functionality to make it easier to rapidly develop plug-ins:

  • Auth: Simple functions to determine enrollment type (etc).
  • DOM: Functions to detect if certain elements are added/removed.
  • I18n: Enables easy localization (using i18next framework).
  • Messages: Functions to add messages and notifications.
  • Router: Allows to run plug-in code only on certain pages while recieving all the parameters as variables. Also lets you create URLs based on routes.
  • Theme: A slightly modified theme to be used by Instructure UI components
