So I wanted to make a Wolfram widget, but it told me I needed flash and flash is no longer supported in 2021. How do I make a Wolfram widget with no flash?

We’re aware of this issue and are evaluating available options and benefits to continuing widgets.
In the meantime, please consider using the Wolfram Language:

Bumping this as well. The Wolfram widget maker has so much value and I hope that it's something that can be used again. Wolfram devs could you look into this? I would greatly appreciate it.

Sorry about the necropost but this is still an issue that is going on. It's been over a year and I feel this should be dealt with, so I am trying to bump this up.

I don't think they are supporting this feature anymore.

Would the Wolfram developers patch this? Because the widget builder is an amazing tool that would help build widgets which use mathematical simulations.

Is there no way around this? I want to build widgets really badly, but I'm facing the same problem.

It looks like Widgets have been in "beta" mode for a while.

It is interesting that the widgets themselves do not require Flash.

It looks like, at least for now, to create new widgets you will need Doctor Strange's Infinity Stone?
