+New ``Styler.pipe()`` method
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+The :class:`~pandas.io.formats.style.Styler` class has gained a
+:meth:`~pandas.io.formats.style.Styler.pipe` method (:issue:`23229`).  This provides a
+convenient way to apply users' predefined styling functions, and can help reduce
+"boilerplate" when using DataFrame styling functionality repeatedly within a notebook.
+
+.. ipython:: python
+
+    df = pandas.DataFrame({'N': [1250, 1500, 1750], 'X': [0.25, 0.35, 0.50]})

+
+    df.style.pipe(format_and_align).set_caption('Summary of results.')
+
+Similar methods already exist for other classes in pandas, including :meth:`DataFrame.pipe`,
+:meth:`Groupby.pipe`, and :meth:`Resampler.pipe`.

+            indicating the keyword of ``callable`` that expects the Styler.
+        *args, **kwargs :
+            Arguments passed to `func`.
+
+        Returns
+        -------
+        object :
+            The value returned by ``func``.
+
+        See Also
+        --------

+        Styler.apply : Apply a function row-wise, column-wise, or table-wise to
+            modify the dataframe's styling.
+
+        Notes
+        -----
+        Like :meth:`DataFrame.pipe`, this method can simplify the
+        application of several user-defined functions to a styler.  Instead
+        of writing:
+
+        .. code-block:: python
+
+            f(g(df.style.set_precision(3), arg1=a), arg2=b, arg3=c)
+
+        users can write:
+
+        .. code-block:: python
+
+            (df.style.set_precision(3)
+               .pipe(g, arg1=a)
+               .pipe(f, arg2=b, arg3=c))
+
+        In particular, this allows users to define functions that take a
+        styler object, along with other parameters, and return the styler after
+        making styling changes (such as calling :meth:`Styler.apply` or
+        :meth:`Styler.set_properties`).  Using ``.pipe``, these user-defined
+        style "transformations" can be interleaved with calls to the built-in
+        Styler interface.
+
+        Examples
+        --------
+        >>> def format_conversion(styler):
+        ...     return (styler.set_properties(**{'text-align': 'right'})
+        ...                   .format({'conversion': '{:.1%}'}))
+
+        The user-defined ``format_conversion`` function above can be called
+        within a sequence of other style modifications:
+
+        >>> df = pd.DataFrame({'trial': list(range(5)),
+        ...                    'conversion': [0.75, 0.85, np.nan, 0.7, 0.72]})
+        >>> (df.style
+        ...    .highlight_min(subset=['conversion'], color='yellow')
+        ...    .pipe(format_conversion)
+        ...    .set_caption("Results with minimum conversion highlighted."))
