Setting a theme for an app

Question

Can I set a theme for the app I create?

I am talking about themes like in...

http://developer.android.com/design/style/themes.html

or should I use Styles and themes, and individually modify every child?

You indeed have to use Styles and Themes.

You can add a theme to whole of your application with just one line in the manifest:

<application android:theme="@style/CustomTheme">

are there any in-built themes that I can use?

Yes. Those mentioned in the link that you have shared. That is for the Ice Cream Sandwich devices. For earlier one's ,search the Android docs, you will find a few.
