Ok, solved. I was putting the .wgt not in the deploy folder but instead in the upload.
Once I did it in the correct folder It appears in the widget store as you have commented. Another two question.: Every time we start rave we must include our .wgt in the deploy folder, or there is some way of execution that allow us to run cargo:run and have the own widget automatically added???? The other one, Is right now the render function widget for a W3C down??? I add any of them (mine or default) to portal but nothing appears,any solution?
