Widget store

Widgets,
ready to embed.

The most-used tiles from launchers and new-tab dashboards — live previews below, each one a self-contained page you can drop into any iframe. Free, no account, dark and light themes, configurable by URL params.

For CoolDesk users

Add your own widget on the widget screen

Beyond the widgets below, CoolDesk lets you bring your own — no store submission, no build step. It lives entirely on your device.

01

Open the widget picker

On your new tab, click "+ Add widget", then select the Custom category and "+ Create your own widget".

02

Describe it to an AI

Click "Copy AI prompt" and paste it into any AI chat (Claude, ChatGPT, etc.), describing what the widget should show.

03

Paste the HTML back

The AI replies with one HTML file. Paste it into the box — or import a saved .html file — and give it a name and tile height.

04

Save & add to board

Click "Save & add to board". It shows up under Custom from then on — rename it, view its source, or delete it anytime.

Custom widgets are stored on your device (not synced to cool-desk.com) and can read/write their own data through the same host bridge every built-in widget uses.

How embedding works

01

It's just an iframe

Every widget is a self-contained page. Point an iframe at it, size the tile, done. No SDK, no build step.

02

Configure with params

Static, non-sensitive config goes in the URL: ?theme=dark&tz=Asia/Kolkata&v=2. Params configure; they never carry data.

03

Private data over postMessage

Hosts hand each widget a MessageChannel port on load. Anything personal flows through that bridge — never through URLs.
