Widget format
Your submitted widget should be a single folder, containing:
widget.jsona widget manifest<widget-name>.widget.zipa zip archive containing your widgetscreenshot.pngan image showing your widget in action
It is also advised that you include an unzipped version of your widget, so that people can view the code.
widget.json
A small manifest file that describes your widget. It should have the following format:
{
"name": "name of your widget",
"description": "a short(!) description",
"author": "your name",
"email": "your email address"
}
widget-name.widget.zip
This is the actual widget, which is a zipped folder with the name of your widget and a .widget extension. The contents of the folder are usually just the .js or .coffee file with your widget code (you can call it anything you like, but index.js/.coffee seems like a good choice). If your widget needs any other assets such as images, fonts or even binaries, you can include them here.
screenshot
An image file in any web format you like, showing a screen shot of your widget. Currently, screen shots are displayed at 258x160px. For best results you can provide a 516x320px image for retina resolution.
