Delving into output controls
In the previous sections, we discussed input widget controls. Arduino IoT Cloud dashboards also feature stunning output controls. There are nine widgets here (although two are non-device widgets – messenger and sticky note).
Value, status, gauge, percentage, and LED
Let’s start with the basic output widgets commonly used by developers in almost every solution. These output widgets are used to display a single value either in numerical or graphical format. Figure 3.9 shows all the main and basic output control widgets:

In this section, we will discuss in detail five different output widget controls in separate sections. First, we will start with the value widget control.
Value
The value widget is a very basic and important widget that is widely used in projects to display sensor/actuator values, such as temperature or humidity...
