What are Widgets?
Widget is an HTML component that can be embedded in your webpage or web application that displays posts you created on AnnounceKit.
Widgets allow you to implement a notification center inside your web page/application without any coding requirements. It has a rich feature set and content support such as images, videos, and embedded documents.
The widget includes an attention-grabbing element called Launcher that increases the visibility of your widget.
Widgets also let your visitors, users, or teammates subscribe to the feature news and updates that you'll publish. People can subscribe to the updates via Email, RSS, and Slack.
All you need to do is to create a widget that best suits your needs and branding. After that, you can get the code and implement it on your webpage where your visitors can easily see it.
