What is it?

ohWidget is an app which runs on the OpenHome Operating System, ohOs.

ohWidget makes it simple get a basic widget onto the network, share its data, and make available a graphical user interface representation for its control.

The ohWidget Graphical User Interface framework provides a rich overview of all connected devices in the home, agnostic of their chosen communications protocol. It also presents the user with a number of key features such as;

- Scheduler - set a specific day or time for when a widget needs to change state. - Presets/Scenes - group widgets together so their collective state change can be invoked by 1 button press. - Triggers - The action of 1 widget invokes an action on 1 or many another widgets.


ohWidget also makes it simple for other apps (external widgets) to plugin to this framework, share their information and present their UI.
