Magento Widgets are Magento extensions with a predefined set of
configuration options. Through them the store administrators can enrich
the front-end blocks functionality. They provide great control and
flexibility in creating informational and marketing content through the
Magento administrator panel. Once installed, the widgets options can be
tuned by the Magento store administrators.
The Magento widgets can be used after Magento version 1.4 and they can be installed in the same way as the other Magento extensions.
