WidgetGallery example

This is the widget gallery, which serves more as a directory of widgets available in Wt.

How to run

This application illustrates a recommended deployment setup for a more involved application, separating:

• docroot: these are publicly available files for the browser to download through the web server (e.g. css, resources, ...)
• approot: these are private application files opened by the application (e.g. resource files, config files, etc...) and not deployed in your document root

To run the application using the built-in httpd, you thus need to:

cd widgetgallery/docroot
ln -s ../../../resources . # include standard Wt resource files in docroot
cd ..
../../build/examples/widgetgallery/widgetgallery.wt \
      --docroot docroot --approot approot \
      --http-address 0.0.0.0 --http-port 8080

What it illustrates

• most widgets in Wt in some form or another, in combination with the bootstrap theme (you can actually trigger the use of another theme using ?theme=default or ?theme=polished parameters)
• lots of small examples
• internal path handling and cross referencing
