    Hi thanks man
    I've seen that and read out well and created a new widget app.
    But i don't really know how to start coding like where can i able to write code and how to get started with that.
    I'd appreciate if you give some example source because i'm fully strange here in Wix

    Thanks dude.
    I've tried hello world first test in my localhost. That works fine.
    And you said about GAE. Is GAE mandatory to create app?
    Please don't get anger on me to ask it again. My superior officer gave me one month duration to finish this App thoroughly, fully and efficiently. So please me know some coding for simple app but not hello world. I don't factually know how to start my coding.
    I've only app key, app secret key.

    Yeah i said about GAE because it's the place you can create your application and on the Wix guide they give you plenty information to how to start... if you already made the test.. so why you don't just do the project according to the needs... and if you note there is a Widgets Market... so there is no samples or tutorials or howto other than the Hello World.. which give the basic.. so it's up to you to use the proper things to achieve your widget content needs..

    Goodluck

    Your "superior officer" (sounds like the army) needs to earn his pay and give you the resources necessary to learn how to do this task. Obviously you don't have the skills and he hasn't identified that and hasn't put steps in place to upskill you. It might be worth a chat with his boss.

    Why you don't simply use the http://dev.wix.com/ the dev center where you can start creating your own app from Scratch.. then add your Player Code or Whatever... sometimes you have really to look around...

    Goodluck

    Thanks themes4all
    But i couldn't go anymore with that simple hello world. I don't really have any idea about further process in my application http://hussainmh39.wix.com/example1
    just see this link this is my for testing my path location and some basics.
    This simple gallery can only be modified by me in my localhost.
    Now i want it be changed in wix site when i click the settings iframe.
    I've designed settings iframe but i don't know how to get the changes made in wix editor to my localhost?
    I'd appreciate if you give some sample coding or link regarding this.

    Never...He's an amicable character.
    I've been spending the whole week for searching the way to develop wix app.
    I've tried every possible keywords in google search engine regarding this search term but fizzled out.
    Nobody posted any clarification about wix app.
    That's why i'm struggling...

    I can't imagine why they are paying you to spend a week doing this. If you can't find the resources online and you don't have the skills then you should be working on something else and the job should be given to someone else. They can't ask you to do something beyond your skillset if they aren't prepared to atleast oversee your progress.
