About the AppDB Gadget

A Web-Gadget is offered to the NGIs, Virtual Research Communities, Virtual Organizations, or even to institutions and individual scientists. It provides data visualization for the AppDB web API result sets, paging capabilities and user defined search operations. The gadget is constructed in such a way, as to provide high usability to external web portals and can be configured to display specific information from the applications database, without any change to the structure of the host site.


The AppDB Web-Gadget Editor, an online configuration tool, has been also developed in order to assist the creation of your own instance of the AppDB Web-Gadget.
