Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer-readable storage mediums described herein enable a dashboard panel application to make “widgets” available to a user on a computing device that provide application functionality without corresponding applications having to be installed on the computing device, and without the use of a conventional web browser. Configuration information is accessed that identifies a plurality of widgets selected for display in a dashboard panel of a dashboard panel application. Account credentials for the widgets are transmitted to corresponding server-hosted services at network addresses indicated in manifests of the widgets. Data associated with the widgets is received from the server-hosted services. A view of the dashboard panel is composed that includes a view of the widgets incorporating the received data. The dashboard panel view is caused to be rendered on the base graphical canvas. Different account credentials may be used to authenticate the widgets with the various server-hosted services.
