 And even without Internet, you would be able to see the docs for your API and interact with it.
+
+## Configuring Swagger UI
+
+You can configure some extra <a href="https://swagger.io/docs/open-source-tools/swagger-ui/usage/configuration" class="external-link" target="_blank">Swagger UI parameters</a>.
+
+To configure them, pass the `swagger_ui_parameters` argument when creating the `FastAPI()` app object or to the `get_swagger_ui_html()` function.
+
+`swagger_ui_parameters` receives a dictionary with the configurations passed to Swagger UI directly.
+
+FastAPI converts the configurations to **JSON** to make them compatible with JavaScript, as that's what Swagger UI needs.
+
+### Disable Syntax Highlighting
+
+For example, you could disable syntax highlighting in Swagger UI.
+
+Without changing the settings, syntax highlighting is enabled by default:
+
+<img src="/img/tutorial/extending-openapi/image02.png">
+
+But you can disable it by setting `syntaxHighlight` to `False`:
+
+```Python hl_lines="3"
+{!../../../docs_src/extending_openapi/tutorial003.py!}
+```
+
+...and then Swagger UI won't show the syntax highlighting anymore:
+
+<img src="/img/tutorial/extending-openapi/image03.png">
+
+### Change the Theme
+
+The same way you could set the syntax highlighting theme with the key `"syntaxHighlight.theme"` (notice that it has a dot in the middle):
+
+```Python hl_lines="3"
+{!../../../docs_src/extending_openapi/tutorial004.py!}
+```
+
+That configuration would change the syntax highlighting color theme:
+
+<img src="/img/tutorial/extending-openapi/image04.png">
+
+### Change Default Swagger UI Parameters
+
+FastAPI includes some default configuration parameters appropriate for most of the use cases.
+
+It includes these default configurations:
+
+```Python
+{!../../../fastapi/openapi/docs.py[ln:7-13]!}
+```
+
+You can override any of them by setting a different value in the argument `swagger_ui_parameters`.
+
+For example, to disable `deepLinking` you could pass these settings to `swagger_ui_parameters`:
+
+```Python hl_lines="3"
+{!../../../docs_src/extending_openapi/tutorial005.py!}
+```
+
+### Other Swagger UI Parameters
+
+To see all the other possible configurations you can use, read the official <a href="https://swagger.io/docs/open-source-tools/swagger-ui/usage/configuration" class="external-link" target="_blank">docs for Swagger UI parameters</a>.
+
+### JavaScript-only settings
+
+Swagger UI also allows other configurations to be **JavaScript-only** objects (for example, JavaScript functions).
+
+FastAPI also includes these JavaScript-only `presets` settings:
+
+```JavaScript
+presets: [
+    SwaggerUIBundle.presets.apis,
+    SwaggerUIBundle.SwaggerUIStandalonePreset
+]
+```
+
+These are **JavaScript** objects, not strings, so you can't pass them from Python code directly.
+
+If you need to use JavaScript-only configurations like those, you can use one of the methods above. Override all the Swagger UI *path operation* and manually write any JavaScript you need.
