## AI overview

A technical deep dive into Monet, the Android framework changes behind Android 12/12L dynamic theming and Material You. It explains how System UI responds to wallpaper changes, extracts colors, generates tonal palettes, and refreshes the system context.

## Source excerpt

We deep dive into the internals of the Android framework, covering the System-UI to understand the changes introduced starting from Android 12/12L and above, code-named Monet. We will explore the new system-wide dynamic theming capabilities and take a look at how Monet fuels the Material You design.
