Widgets are the mechanism by which content is added to a page. Several varieties of widgets are available, each suitable for a different type of content. New widgets will become available over time.

Note
While there is no limit to the number of widgets you can assign to a row, for best results the total widget width should not exceed the width of the container. Example of configuration that follow this recommendation include (but are not limited to) the following:
Four quarter-width widgets in a row
One two-thirds-width widget and one one-third-width widget in a row
One full-width widget in a row
One one-third-widget and one half-width widget in a row
Examples of potentially problematic configurations include (but are not limited to) the following:
One third-width widget and three quarter-width widgets in a row
