creating custom widgets magento 2

[luke_mersh]

Hello again.

I am getting stuck on creating custom widgets.

My situation:

Magento 2 in Production mode on remote server.

I have been reading all documents and articles about serveral issues i would like to resolve, such as this one, my problem is the following:

 I am using existing Luma template and making changes to that.

I was wondering if it is possible to create a widget locally and then upload it to the server under the correct directory.

So far I have manged to make chages to existing template by downolading the files off the server and make changes to them and then upload the updated file.

But..

with dynamic things such as widgets I am not sure.

I would like to create a widget like 'catalog-product-list' but a widget that displays products from individual subcategories so ie.- 'catalog-subcategory-list'

is this possible?

many thanks

@luke_mersh you can create the widgets from magento admin and test them in local and if it works fine then you can create the same widget on production from the admin panel.

Thanks
