1. Aim:
Create Application by Using Widgets.

2. Objective:
To understand the concept of widgets and to implement the Widgets in Android
Studio.

3. Procedure:
Step 1: Create a New Project
To create a new project in Android Studio please refer to How to Create/Start a
New Project in Android Studio. We are implementing it for both Java and Kotlin
languages.

Step 2: Add the App Widget to the Project


Right-Click on the app, move the cursor to new, find the “Widget” option at the
end, select it.

Step 3: Install and Run the Code


Install and run the code on Android Virtual Device (AVD) or a personal device.
Open the widget section of the phone, lookup for a widget with the Application
name, select it, bring it to the home screen. Try changing the dimensions and we
are done! During this selecting and deploying process, a few extra files are
generated and minor changes are made to existing files as well. No programming
is required for generating a basic widget and is only required if an application is
to be embedded inside the widget, as discussed in the later parts of the article. Let
