Does anyone use sub widgets? I am looking for some examples.

[AronHarris]

 I tried to follow the example from the video “Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS:  Development Tools and Techniques” - https://www.esri.com/training/#!/catalog/5765fc3c94ad79e609cf47ac/web-appbuilder-for I had no luck it did not explain about make the SubWidget folder or what is in it.

Aron,

  I do not use sub widget and I do not know of any other WAB widget developer that does either. It may be beneficial in some way but I have not seen a benefit that would cause me to use it.

Robert,

I am new at creating widgets(not successfully), what would be a good

widget to use as an example to learn off of.

Thanks

Aron

Aron,

 Look at the widget tutorial

Create a custom in-panel widget—Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS (Developer Edition) | ArcGIS for Developer... 

and you can always start with the CustomWidgetTemplate found in this folder:

[install dir]\client\stemapp\widgets\samplewidgets\CustomWidgetTemplate

[TomWayson]

The purpose of using a subwidget is to create a widget that you can use both in the WAB and outside the WAB in another JSAPI application. If you do not need to do that, then it may not be worth the additional effort.

Either way, I'd consider it more of an "advanced" technique, and probably not a good starting point.
