I am unable to find, login & work with "Widget Browser" in Dreamweaver CC, it was a great tool to insert widgets like lighbox gallery etc... i very sadly express shame on Adobe removing this. Now i have to learn JAVA and coding to design website gallaries.  And many thins are now purchasable in Add-on, for this also Shame on you  ADOBE.

Can any one find replacement for such widget browser to be used in Dreamweaver CC, i will be very thankful.

Shame Adobe, Shame Shame Shame Shame

    The Widget Browser was disabled a long time ago for the Legacy versions of the program that had it.

    Adobe even went so far as to discontinue the Extension Manager, now we have to use third party EMs from extension developers like Project VII or DMXZone.

    Widget Browser was taken offline years ago.  The widgets were outdated and the 3rd party developers had no interest in updating them.

    Not JAVA.  JavaScript.  2 very different things.
