How to create a widget
Start with the job the widget should do, choose the information it needs, then turn it into a small surface you can reuse.
A widget is not just a small app. The best widgets answer one repeatable question quickly, without pulling you into a full website or workflow.
What is a widget?
A widget is a small interface for checking information or performing a simple action without opening a full app every time.
Widgets appear on desktops, phones, websites, dashboards, and apps. The useful ones all have the same job: make one repeated check or action easier.
