# Rendering variants

SXA lets you change the way components render by using [rendering variants](https://doc.sitecore.com/xp/en/developers/sxa/105/sitecore-experience-accelerator/create-a-rendering-variant.html "Create a rendering variant"). This section of the documentation provides you with the information how to [create a custom token](https://doc.sitecore.com/xp/en/developers/sxa/105/sitecore-experience-accelerator/create-a-custom-token-for-a-rendering-variant.html "Create a custom token for a rendering variant") for a rendering variant and how to [add a dynamic placeholder](https://doc.sitecore.com/xp/en/developers/sxa/105/sitecore-experience-accelerator/add-a-dynamic-placeholder-to-a-rendering-variant.html "Add a dynamic placeholder to a rendering variant").
