Don’t touch the jimu base classes!
Code in server, update to client.

Inherit from existing widgets and themes.
No true OOP inheritance, cut & paste
Global replace all names of old widget or theme with the new name in all files!
BEWARE! The base theme names and maybe some widget names might be hard-coded into the jimu code.
Use a debugger to find out how your widget works before doing anything.

Use Feature Actions.
Best way to communicate between widgets.
Use Attribute Table Widget as an example.
Link to feature action in parent widget, code in child widget.
