 # Configuration
 
-Umbraco UI Builder can be configured directly via the `AddUIBuilder` extension method on `IUmbracoBuilder`.
+You can configure Umbraco UI Builder using the `AddUIBuilder` extension method in `Program.cs`.
 
-## AddUIBuilder
+## Using `AddUIBuilder` in `Program.cs`
 
-To configure Umbraco UI Builder via the `AddUIBuilder` extension method, You can look in the `Program.cs` file in the root of your web project. From within this file, before the call to `AddComposers()` we can add our `AddUIBuilder` configuration.
+To configure Umbraco UI Builder:
+
+1. Open the `Program.cs` file in your project.
+2. Locate the `CreateUmbracoBuilder()` method.
+3. Add `AddUIBuilder` before `AddComposers()`.
 
 ```csharp
 builder.CreateUmbracoBuilder()
     .AddBackOffice()
     .AddWebsite()
     .AddUIBuilder(cfg => {
-                // Apply your configuration here
+       // Apply your configuration here
     })
     .AddDeliveryApi()
     .AddComposers()
     .Build();
 ```
 
-The `AddUIBuilder` extension method accepts a single parameter, a delegate function with one of the Umbraco UI Builder configuration builder arguments. With this, you can then call the relevant fluent APIs to define your solution.
+{% hint style="info" %}
+If you want an example configuration, see the **Configure Umbraco UI Builder** section in the [Creating your First Integration](../guides/creating-your-first-integration.md) article.

 # User Interface
 
-Before you get to know Umbraco UI Builder, you need to become familiar with the Umbraco UI and a few of its concepts. This is because Umbraco UI Builder reuses these same concepts for constructing its UI.
+Before diving into Umbraco UI Builder, it’s important to understand some of the fundamental concepts of the Umbraco UI. This knowledge will help you navigate and leverage the UI Builder more effectively, as it uses the same UI components to construct interfaces.
 
-![Sections, Trees, and Dashboards](../images/ui_01.png)
+1. **Section:** A section in Umbraco is a distinct area within the backoffice where related content and functionality are grouped. For example, the Content section is where content management happens, while the Media section handles media files.
 
-**1. Section** A distinct area of the Umbraco backoffice.
-**2. Tree** A hierarchical structure to help organize a section.  
-**3. Dashboard** An intro screen for a section, usually with useful links for that section.  
+2. **Tree:** The tree represents the hierarchical structure of items within a section. It organizes content, settings, and data, making it easy to navigate and locate items. For example, the content tree shows the pages of a website in a nested format.
 
-![List View](../images/ui_02.png)
+3. **Dashboard:** Each section in the Umbraco backoffice typically starts with a dashboard. This is the introductory screen for the section and often includes useful links or shortcuts, providing an overview or quick access to the most commonly used features.
 
-**4. List View** A list-based view of items in a tree node.
+![Sections, Trees, and Dashboards](images/ui_01.png)
 
-![Editor](../images/ui_03.png)
+4. **Collection:** The collection displays a list of items in a tree node. It provides an overview of content or data in a table format, with sortable columns and the option to filter or search through the items. This view is used when you need to work with multiple items at once.
 
-**5. Editor** The main content editing area is made up of tabs, fieldsets, and fields.

-![Context Apps and Tabs](../images/ui_06.png)
+5. **Editor:** The editor is where the main content editing occurs. It is structured using tabs, fieldsets, and fields. Tabs organize different sections of content, and fieldsets group related fields together. Each field represents a specific piece of data, such as a text box or an image upload.
 
-**6. Context Apps** A contextual section of a given editor UI.
-**7. Tabs** A tabbed container of content.

-![Menu Item](../images/ui_04.png)
+6. **Workspace Views:** Workspace Views are additional functionality that can be added to an editor. They provide extra features based on the content of the item being edited. For instance, a media content app might allow you to resize or crop an image directly from the editor.
 
-**8. Menu Item** A context menu item + action.
+7. **Tabs:** Tabs are used to organize content within the editor, allowing users to switch between different sections of a content item. For example, one tab might contain the general settings, while another contains media or advanced options.
