Evoke Widgets
Widgets are the UI input/display/image control options that can be included within the App being built with Evoke. Used together with Templates, inside Segments, they are fundamental to the App functions. The following is a summary of the Widgets available within Evoke. Please also see the "Example" App design provided as part of Evoke accounts that provides examples of these Widgets.
