## What it is
A gallery of example UI components (widgets) and MCP servers for OpenAI's Apps SDK, demonstrating how to build rich in-chat apps for ChatGPT. It serves as a starting point and reference for developers building their own Apps SDK integrations.

## Use cases
- build custom widgets for ChatGPT apps
- learn how to expose tools via an MCP server
- see example MCP servers in TypeScript and Python
- keep widget state in sync across conversation turns
- get inspiration for building Apps SDK integrations
- return rich UI components from MCP tool calls

## When to choose
- you are building an app for ChatGPT with the Apps SDK
- you want working reference implementations of MCP servers that render widgets
- you need examples of widget session state management

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready app rather than examples
- you are building integrations for LLM clients other than ChatGPT
- you want a general-purpose MCP framework rather than sample code
