This article shows specific improvements and changes that have been done for the Web Generator.
- For new KBs Web Form Defaults property is set to Responsive Web Design by default.
- A new Theme is introduced: Carmine. The default Theme value is Carmine for new KBs, and it remains with the previous values for KBs opened with GeneXus X Evolution 3.
- The WW pattern generates different layouts depending on the Default Theme value. If the Default Theme is Carmine (or a save as of it), the pattern WW generates layouts with a better user experience using the Carmine Theme.
On the other hand, if the Default Theme isn't Carmine, the layout generated by the WW pattern is the same as the traditional one.

1. Less traffic is sent from the server to the client
2. It solves security concerns
