-== Purpose ==
-== Examples ==
-== Guidelines ==
-* Do you really need a custom widget? Check whether an existing widget cannot be used instead.
-* It is strongly recommended to consult the usability team (https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/groups/usability/)
-* Create interaction by following natural use. Find the appropriate metaphor and define a skeuomorph interface.
-* Make sure your new widget:
-** Resizes correctly
-** Handles right-to-left setups
-** Works well with different color schemes
-** Looks as close to native as possible (use QStyle or QStylePainter to draw elements)
-** Is based on an existing widget rather than a plain QWidget if possible
-* If possible, consider making your widget reusable enough so that it can be integrated in standard widgets
-== Implementation ==
