I do not see why the states are not applied to widgets in your custom
components. Could you provide a code snippet to demonstrate this?

What kind of changes did you make?

Feel free to open an enhancement request for missing styling API.

Styles are read from your CSS files, pre-processed and transferred to
the client, where they are applied to the widgets on state changes. What
exactly is the missing piece?
