Rendering a widget in a Blade view

import Aside from "@components/Aside.astro"

Before proceeding, make sure `filament/widgets` is installed in your project. You can check by running:

```bash
composer show filament/widgets
```
If it's not installed, consult the [installation guide](../introduction/installation#installing-the-individual-components) and configure the **individual components** according to the instructions.

Creating a widget

Use the make:filament-widget command to generate a new widget. For details on customization and usage, see the widgets section.

Adding the widget

Since widgets are Livewire components, you can easily render a widget in any Blade view using the @livewire directive:

<div>
    @livewire(\App\Livewire\Dashboard\PostsChart::class)
</div>

If you're using a [table widget](../widgets/overview#table-widgets), make sure to install `filament/tables` as well. Refer to the [installation guide](../introduction/installation#installing-the-individual-components) and follow the steps to configure the **individual components** properly.
