# Eww






Elkowars Wacky Widgets is a standalone widget system made in Rust that allows you to implement

your own, custom widgets in any window manager.



Documentation **and instructions on how to install** can be found [here](https://elkowar.github.io/eww).



Dharmx also wrote a nice, beginner friendly introductory guide for eww [here](https://dharmx.is-a.dev/eww-powermenu/).



## Eww needs your opinion!

I've hit a bit of a design roadblock for one of the bigger features that are in the works right now.



**Please read through https://github.com/elkowar/eww/discussions/453 and share your thoughts, ideas and opinions!**
