IT House May 26 news, at the Build 2022 developer conference, Microsoft confirmed Windows 11 The store in , will soon support downloading third-party widgets. Accessible only through the Windows Widgets panel, these web widgets or applets provide at-a-glance information, such as Microsoft MSN headlines or weather updates.
Widgets are one of the important features of the Windows 11 operating system, and users can launch them by swiping from the left side of the screen or pressing Windows + W on the keyboard. Microsoft has confirmed thatDevelopers can submit their widgets on the Microsoft Store later this year. Once submitted by the developer, users will be able to download widgets from the store and find them next to their native widgets on the widget board.
IT Home understands that,Currently the widget panel can only provide details for native appssuch as Microsoft To-Do, Microsoft Store, Movies and TV, etc., so its main problem at the moment is that there aren’t many widgets available.
Microsoft doesn’t want users to forget the widget panel, and is developing third-party APIs to help developers submit their widgets in the store. At a conference at Build 2022,Microsoft also showed off a new widgets board with all third-party widgets, including Slack.
As you can see in the screenshot above, third-party widgets allow users to access their services directly from the panel. For example, there is a Slack-like widget that lets users view information from different channels or conversations. Widgets like this can be useful to make the experience of the widget panel more diverse.
Microsoft has apparently been reaching out to third parties and has been sharing details on how developers can submit widgets through the Microsoft Store.
