Why deliver them as VertiGIS Studio Web incubator libraries?

Esri's widgets provide immediate value when they solve a use case, they do not however support many other aspects of VertiGIS Studio Web in a way that would allow us to include them directly. Most notably, these widgets do not support WCAG AA accessibility, they do no full internationalization, and they are not integrated into the brand and style capabilities of VertiGIS Studio Web.

How do I use them?

Go to the VertiGIS Studio Web incubator page of interest
Use the Download this Library link to download the library .js file
In VertiGIS Studio Web Designer in any saved app, use the File > Upload Library to add the library .js file to your app
The Esri widgets will appear as new components you can include and configure in your app

p.s. In addition to the ready-to-use library this is on GitHub and so you can also access the source code if you desire to tweak it.
