Background

What is an embeddable widget?

  • Usable using a simple <script> tag
  • Configurable with code
  • Themable

Why not in an iframe?

  • Interaction between the frame and the hosting page is tricky and not recommended
  • You can only display content within the iframe
  • iframe and content resizing is impossible
  • iframe sandboxing can result in missing functionalities
