We have just released our first Sidebar Gadget – Slovenian Radio. The gadget features a centralized list of radio stations (retrieved from our server) and basic controls for selecting the station and adjusting the volume.
Since gadgets are HTML applications and the Windows Sidebar uses Internet Explorer 7 to render them, I prefer running their code directly in IE7 during development.
I wrote my own sample with clearly separated HTML structure, CSS styles and JavaScript code to showcase development of Windows Sidebar Gadgets.
I though I'd gather in one place all the useful links I found with information on development of Windows Sidebar gadgets.
I've gathered few issues that could be covered better in the documentation since I've been struggling with them for some time before I got everything to work as expected.
