Custom Kepo widget generated for a Mac desktop panel

Shortcut-ready

Build widgets from sources you already check, then open the Kepo panel with one shortcut.

Why it exists

When templates are not enough

Many widget apps are built around fixed templates. That works for common information, but not for the exact web page, feed, repository, status view, or internal page you personally check.

Kepo is designed for custom widgets. Start from the source you care about, define the small signal you want to see, and keep the result in a shortcut-ready Mac panel.

The original website or app remains the place for deep work. The custom widget gives you the first glance before you decide whether to open it.

Use Cases

What can become a custom widget

A custom widget should answer one repeated question quickly.

Websites and feeds

Create widgets for RSS feeds, article lists, changelogs, documentation updates, launch pages, and pages without clean native widgets.

Developer and product sources

Track GitHub releases, Product Hunt pages, Reddit threads, status pages, internal dashboards, and small product signals.

Small tools

Keep checklists, timers, formatters, calculators, monitors, and prompt-based tools near your work.

Workflow

How custom widget creation works

Keep the request narrow so the widget stays useful.

Choose one source

Start with one URL, feed, page section, repository, status page, or small workflow.

Describe the useful signal

Ask for the latest items, current status, release version, unread count, timer, checklist, or compact tool output.

Custom widgets vs generic templates

Best for common data types such as weather, calendar, notes, reminders, and simple decorative widgets.

Custom Kepo widgets

Best for web pages, feeds, repositories, launch pages, dashboards, and small tools that are specific to your workflow.
