What an Art Deco battery widget shows

A battery widget turns one number into a shape you can read without thinking. A ring that fills clockwise is the clearest form, with the percentage inside it.

Battery level is a free, built-in source in WidgetCraft and needs no permission. The widget refreshes when the charge changes or the charger is connected.

How the Art Deco style shapes it

Art Deco widgets take the look of 1920s posters and hotel signage: thin gold lines, strict symmetry, tall elegant capitals and ivory or black grounds.
