Widget overview

UpdateKit offers two widget types. Choose one under a project's Embed tab.

Floating button

A "What's new?" button pinned to a corner of the screen. Clicking it opens a panel with the latest updates.

Inline timeline

A version-history component you embed directly into your page — great for a settings page or a dedicated "What's new" section.

Both load from a single <script> tag and respect your customization (accent color, label, theme).

Use both at once

The Embed tab sets the default type, which applies wherever you paste the plain snippet. You can also override the type per page with a ?mode query parameter:

  • Floating on any page: …/embed/uk_pub_xxx.js?mode=floating
  • Inline on any page: add <div id="updatekit-widget"></div> and …/embed/uk_pub_xxx.js?mode=inline

So you can run the floating button on one page and the inline timeline on another — or even both on the same page.
