Hi,
I'm a total beginner with WAB, but what I want to do is take a tool I have developed for ArcGIS Desktop and bring that into a web app. How the tool works is:
1. User selects a construction contract boundary from a polygon layer
2. User clicks on the 'Document Manager' tool (in ArcGIS)
3. A windows form opens up, connects to a web API which returns some JSON with the details on the contract boundary, based on the CONTRACT_NUMBER of the polygon.
4. Information is displayed on the form.
See the screenshot below for an example. All of the data here is returned via JSON. How would I replicate this sort of behaviour with a Widget? Where do I even start? I realize in webapps there are no 'forms', but I guess some sort of panel to display the info would work?? I am not a web programmer at all, so just looking to get some ideas.
Thanks!

OK. Sounds good. The only thing I know about Dojo is that is where I take my kid there everyweek for karate lessons. I'll have to do some more reading on what this is and how to use.
Arigato!!
