Twitter rolls out custom themes for Digits, its free sign-in API

After rolling out its phone number sign-in tool, Digits, in October, Twitter is now giving developers creative control over the API’s appearance.

With a few lines of code, the Digits API can be themed to match the rest of a website with appropriate background and accent colors.

Digits is supposed to ease the on-boarding process for consumers on both iOS and Android, while keeping the app secure. Instead of registering with a host of personal information (email, password, etc), users just need to enter a phone number. Twitter then sends a confirmation code to verify the number.

For instructions on how to tweak the API to suit your website, see Twitter’s original post.
