Discussion

Remote widgets work if the widget uses DataEngines and Services exclusively, polls the remote DataEngine excessively and only speaks one network backend.

Proposed Solution

  • Provide a remote-transparent data store and/or command/event proxy.
  • Get rid of polling with push API
  • Properly abstract network layer
  • Possibility to sync over network the applet configuration too
  • Possibility for a local widget to connect to a remote dataengine
