@triniwiz Why making this part of Nativescript core while you added url into the runtime?
I personally, much prefer for it to be here but i quite dont understand why you switch. I would say everything should be in the same place.

Now it beeing here, wouldnt it be nicer to split that into a separated lib that widgets? while still importing it by default?
It would be cleaner, prevent widgets (and it is not widgets here) from becoming a bag of everything.
It would also easily allow splitting it into a separated "plugin" if need be (yes my fork would do that right away :P)

@farfromrefug With the new @nativescript/foundation package being planned out (to eventually supersede core in v10 likely), there will be separate modules. We'll provide more clarity on @nativescript/foundation planning before the end of the year in a detailed write-up and can discuss further in Discord group.

Thanks again for the feedback @farfromrefug we split out a new @nativescript/winter-cg package:
51ebece
It will become a prebuilt for core (like widgets) in 8.8 initially but will become optional with the forthcoming @nativescript/foundation (see Discord).

@NathanWalker awesome did not see that on discord. Will look
