Terasology uses its' own NUI framework to display in-game interfaces at overlays - it includes traditional interface elements, or "widgets", such as buttons, textboxes, dropdowns and so on. The NUI tutorial has a Core Widgets wiki page which is empty at the moment. Your task is to add info to it covering the NUI widgets in the org.terasology.rendering.nui.widgets package.

Definition of 'Done'

• The wiki page contains a complete list of all widgets. (If you don't have wiki access, ask someone or IRC - or use a placeholder wiki in your own repo, we can move the page later.)
• Each widget has:
  • A short description (what does it do?)
  • An overview of 2-3 API methods (how can a modder interact with it?)
  • [Optional but nice to have] A screenshot of the widget in-game.

Where to start?

• Inspect the widgets in the org.terasology.rendering.nui.widgets package or search for subtypes of org.terasology.rendering.nui.CoreWidget.
• The NUI Quick Start guide can be helpful if you want to test a widget yourself.
• Typing showScreen migTestScreen in the ingame console will display a list of several core widgets - you can use it to take screenshots of the widget.
