At Esri User Conference in San Diego this year, many of you asked for the plans for ArcGIS Web AppBuilder and ArcGIS Experience Builder. We have now shared the following plans under What are the current plans for ArcGIS Web AppBuilder and ArcGIS Experience Builder at Frequently Asked Questions on the product page. "ArcGIS Web AppBuilder leverages version 3.x of the ArcGIS API for JavaScript, and we continue to maintain the product within the limitation of the technology. ArcGIS Experience Builder is built on the latest web technology and version 4.x of the ArcGIS API for JavaScript. Thus, it offers optimized performance, and enables an extensive suite of capabilities far beyond what version 3.x of the ArcGIS API and ArcGIS Web AppBuilder provide, such as mobile optimization, 2D and 3D in one app, flexible design, custom workflows, and integration with other ArcGIS apps. Moving forward, development efforts will be focused on bringing functional parity from ArcGIS Web AppBuilder to ArcGIS Experience Builder. While ArcGIS Web AppBuilder will continue to be available as an option for building new web apps, we recommend that you first evaluate whether ArcGIS Experience Builder will meet your application requirements and strategy. All your ArcGIS Web AppBuilder apps that you have built will continue to work and will be supported by Esri." To help move your apps from Web AppBuilder to Experience Builder, we have published a video demonstrating how to re-create an existing WAB app using Experience Builder step-by-step, and what you can do more to improve the app using Experience Builder such as optimizing the app on mobile and viewing 3D and 2D maps.

Adding Experience Builder custom widgets in ArcGIS Enterprise is now supported in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 and up. The blog highlights a good level of detail on how to compile a custom widget, register it as an item in the portal, and use it in the app. A special thank to Robert Sheitlint for his Enhanced Locate widget used in the blog as an example. Cheers, Choose Experience Builder widget type.png ... View more
