AppRoot

In order to have all the providers in place for rendering overlays, applying global styles or internationalization, you need to wrap your app in the AppRoot. If you're using the dt-app to create your app, this is automatically taken care of and you can start working on your app without further ado.

Import

import { AppRoot } from '@dynatrace/strato-components-preview/core';

Use cases

The AppRoot takes care of detecting the users preferred color scheme depending on the preferred theme you have set in your Dynatrace account. By default, we are using the preferred color scheme you have set in your browser or OS. The design tokens are set accordingly to render the corresponding theme.

For localization, the AppRoot also detects the current language the same way it is detecting the preferred color scheme. The resulting language is then used to translate the text on the page, using English as fallback if the language is not supported.

The AppRoot component is automatically added in the main.tsx file of your app when creating the app with the Dynatrace App Toolkit.

import React from 'react';
import { AppRoot } from '@dynatrace/strato-components-preview/core';

export const App = () => <AppRoot>App Root Content</AppRoot>;
