Automatic customization of a generic web interface

A computer program product for automatically implementing styles in a target application, the computer program product comprising:

• one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media and program instructions stored on the one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media, the program instructions comprising:
• accessing a target application to retrieve a plurality of target properties that correspond to a plurality of target styles of the target application;
• accessing a source to a plurality of source properties that correspond to a plurality of source styles of the source;
• generating a target list that list the plurality of target properties that correspond to the plurality of target styles;
• generating a source list that list the plurality of source properties that correspond to the plurality of source styles;
• comparing the plurality of target styles from the target list to the plurality of source styles from the source list;
• in response to not matching some of the plurality of target styles from the target list to some of the plurality of source styles from the source list, generating a pending list that includes target properties that do not match any of the plurality of source properties;
• replacing the target properties in the pending list, that do not match any of the plurality of source properties, with a set of functions that can compute a similar value from other information in the target properties in the pending list, wherein the similar value for a replaced target property in the pending list is computed via a similarity index;
• generating a value for each target style, from the plurality of target styles, on the pending list;
• determining a difference between the generated value for each target style on the pending list to the corresponding property for each of the plurality of target styles from the target list;
• determining a new property for each target style on the pending list based on the determined difference and the similarity index;
• transforming the new property for each target style on the pending list based on the similarity index;
• replacing the properties on the target list that correspond to the plurality of target styles on the pending list with the transformed new properties;
• and
• transmitting the replaced transformed new properties, thus the target application now displays the plurality of target styles that corresponds to the replaced transformed new properties.

A computer system for automatically implementing styles in a target application, the computer system comprising:

• one or more computer processors, one or more computer-readable storage media, and program instructions stored on one or more of the computer-readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more processors, the program instructions comprising:
• accessing a target application to retrieve a plurality of target properties that correspond to a plurality of target styles of the target application;
• accessing a source to a plurality of source properties that correspond to a plurality of source styles of the source;
• generating a target list that list the plurality of target properties that correspond to the plurality of target styles;
