Many websites and apps provide their own embeddable widgets. These can be used with Dashy using the Embed widget, which lets you dynamically embed and HTML, CSS or JavaScript contents.
⚠️ **NOTE:** Use with extreme caution. Embedding a script from an untrustworthy source may have serious unintended consequences.
For a full tutorial on creating your own widget, you can follow [this guide](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/docs/development-guides.md#building-a-widget), or take a look at [here](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/commit/3da76ce2999f57f76a97454c0276301e39957b8e) for a code example.
