Magento 2 Widget Creation for CMS Pages

Purpose

This skill provides comprehensive guidance on creating custom widget modules in Magento 2 (standard Luma/Blank themes, not Hyvä-based) that can be inserted into CMS pages, CMS blocks, or any content area using the widget system.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to:

• Create a reusable component that can be inserted into CMS pages
• Build interactive elements (buttons, forms, modals) for content editors
• Develop custom functionality that non-technical users can add to pages
• Create widgets with configurable parameters that appear in the admin panel
• Implement widgets that work with standard Magento themes (Luma/Blank)

Do NOT use this skill for:

• Hyvä theme widgets (use hyva-tailwind-integration skill instead)
• Backend admin widgets
• UI components or admin grids
