Patent attributes
Techniques are disclosed relating to automatically generating user interfaces. In some embodiments, input data to be displayed is grouped into components (e.g., based on depth within hierarchical code, coordinates in a display space, etc.). These components may be based on template information that defines a set of known component types. In some embodiments, the system formats the selected components according to display parameters and causes display of a user interface that displays the components based on the formatting. In various embodiments, the disclosed techniques may allow automatic creation of effective user interfaces without information specifying layout and formatting for input data. This may provide flexible, quality interfaces without requiring design or coding expertise. Further, disclosed techniques may allow the automatic interface generator to generate interfaces similar to other existing interfaces.
