Angie Code, part of Elementor’s Angie AI, builds custom Elementor widgets from a plain-language description, a screenshot or a URL. It writes the PHP, CSS and JavaScript, adds proper Elementor controls so you can style the widget visually, and tests it in an isolated environment before you apply it. It is ideal for one-off features no addon covers, as long as you review the result like any code.
- Describe the widget and its settings in plain language.
- The widget appears in your Elementor panel with real controls.
- One custom widget can replace a whole addon pack.
- Review code for security, speed and accessibility.
- Keep a copy of the code outside the site.
What can you build?
- A before and after image slider with handle styling
- A price calculator for your services
- A team grid pulling from a custom post type
- A countdown bar for a sale with timezone handling
- A dashboard view or admin snippet for your team
Custom post types, plugins, theme tweaks and integrations written the WordPress way, update-safe and documented.
Step-by-step workflow
- Write a short spec: what it shows, what content editors change, how it behaves on mobile.
- Prompt Angie Code with the spec and a reference screenshot if you have one.
- Refine by conversation: “add a control for the handle colour”, “make it keyboard accessible”.
- Style visually in the Elementor panel.
- Review and test on staging, then apply to the live site.
A prompt example
Create an Elementor widget called Service Price Estimator. Controls: list of services with name and base price, currency symbol, button text and link. Visitors tick services and see a running total. Accessible with keyboard, works at 360px wide, uses my global colours.
Checks every AI-built widget needs
| Check | What to look for |
|---|---|
| Security | Escaped output, no unsafe user input handling |
| Speed | Scripts load only where the widget is used |
| Accessibility | Labels, focus states, keyboard use |
| Updates | Works after Elementor and WordPress updates |
Before building, check if a native element or a single trusted addon already does the job. See which Elementor addons to use.

Frequently asked questions
Can AI create custom Elementor widgets?
Yes. Angie Code generates widgets with PHP, CSS, JavaScript and Elementor controls from a description.
Do I need to know code to use Angie Code?
No, but someone should review the code before using it on an important site.
Will an AI widget break after updates?
It can, like any custom code. Test after Elementor and WordPress updates.
Is a custom widget better than an addon?
Often, if you only need one feature, because you avoid loading a whole addon pack.
