What kind of widget are we talking about here? There are some out-of-the box widgets provided in our Toolkit. You can check out the SDK samples here: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#ToolkitEditorWidget, http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#FeatureDataGrid, http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#LegendSimple.

We have a QueryTask and FeatureLayer (that encapsulates a QueryTask), the results can be displayed on map through GraphicsLayer and/or tools like FeatureDataGrid. You can start off with: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#QueryWithoutMap

There are also available templates here: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/TemplateGalleryWeb/start.htm. You can write your own widget by piecing together one SDK sample at a time. There is Navigation control you can use for panning/zooming. There is EditorWidget control you can use for editing. There is SpatialQuery action. Some are provided for you out-of-the box, you just need to know how to use them and how to put them together in your application. The SDK sample page is a good starting point.

Hi,

Even I am new to development in silverlight but I found this template :-http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=ad9b257016ab40ee9def89ac2d3db2b3

It has many widgets which has been created in such a way that many things are configurable through XML (and not XAML).

with the help of this template I created new widgets like graphic tool etc and it worked good.

you will be able to really speed up your development and complete viewer will be configurable.
