A new user reads the Widget <https://tiddlywiki.com/#Widgets> & Widgets in 
WikiText <https://tiddlywiki.com/#Widgets%20in%20WikiText> tiddlers and 
then asks - can you please give me a simpler explanation of what is meant 
by "a Widget"?

A line each from the above tiddlers:





*Widgets provide rich functionality within WikiText 
<https://tiddlywiki.com/#WikiText>. They have the same syntax as HTML 
elements <https://tiddlywiki.com/#HTML%20in%20WikiText>, but the tag name 
always starts with $.Each class of widget contributes a specific ability to 
the overall functionality, such as the ability to display an image 
<https://tiddlywiki.com/#ImageWidget> or a button 
<https://tiddlywiki.com/#ButtonWidget>, to call a macro 
<https://tiddlywiki.com/#MacroCallWidget> or transclude text from elsewhere 
<https://tiddlywiki.com/#TranscludeWidget>, or to mark a piece of text as a 
heading <https://tiddlywiki.com/#HTML%20in%20WikiText>.*How would you 
answer this question to a new visitor?

Please be aware your answer, or a part of it, may be used on the website!
