Hi Frédéric,
To override the standard template used in a controller (ie,
@expose("my.template.name")), pass "tg_template" in the dictionary you
return from your controller. So, if the template is stored in a
database, then you can just pass the name in the tg_template part of
the dictionary you return.

Widgets contain a template variable that contains the Kid template
(either the whole template, or a filename) to be used when it is to be
displayed. You'd then include the widgets from your page template.
You'd generally not have a single widget to display all the page - the
page would use multiple widgets.
