  • Activity timeline (populates as experiments run)
  • Auto-synced data explorer
  • Responsive design (works on mobile)

​
Theme Customization

Go to Lab Settings > Site > Theme:
  • Primary color, Your brand accent color (default: #5fb88a)
  • Heading font, Serif or sans-serif headings
  • Body font, Body text font
  • Code font, Monospace font for code blocks
  • Mode, Light or dark
