Service Widget Guidelines

To ensure cohesiveness of various widgets, the following should be used as a guide for developing new widgets:

  • Please only submit widgets that have been requested and have at least 5 'up-votes'
  • Widgets should be only one row of blocks
  • Widgets should be no more than 4 blocks wide
  • Minimize the number of API calls
  • Avoid the use of custom proxy unless absolutely necessary
