What is a Zimbra Classic Zimlet?

A Classic Zimlet is an extension for the Zimbra Classic Web Client, primarily built using an XML definition file to describe the UI and a JavaScript handler to manage logic.

How do I deploy a Zimlet created with this skill?

You must package your Zimlet files into a ZIP archive and use the 'zmzimletctl deploy' command on your Zimbra server to install and enable it.

Can I use this skill for Zimbra Modern UI development?

No, this skill is specifically designed for the XML-based Classic Web Client. The Modern UI uses a different React-based architecture.

How do I debug my Classic Zimlet?

You can use URL parameters such as '?dev=1' for unminified code, '?debug=1' for the SOAP debug window, or use browser console logging via AjxDebug.

What is the DWT library used in these Zimlets?

DWT (Discrete Widget Toolkit) is Zimbra's proprietary JavaScript library used to create UI components like buttons, dialogs, and menus within the Classic client environment.
