Web widgets are becoming more and more popular all over the web. If you want to embed some widgets to your Wiki a very cool solution is offered by Widgetbox. In a few words it looks like this:
- they let you create a panel that holds widgets,
- you can configure individual widgets from their gallery of widgets,
- now you can simply embed the whole panel into your pages.
This is very cool and easy to embed widgets into your side bar (nav:side) or main content of your page. There is also an example in our "Snippets Wiki".
So far it seems the easiest way to include widgets into Wikidot pages and the choice of available widgets is already great and is growing nicely.
