A [[Gramps_Glossary#gramplet|Gramplet]] is an expansion to the Gramps program that ''ideally'' works seamlessly as if it was a core feature. They actually become embedded as part of Gramps. But while the core features of a view are needed almost constantly, the bundled Gramplets extend the view in ways that are only needed occasionally. Gramplets provide a supplemental perspective of the Tree data which either: changes dynamically during the navigation of the Gramps Tree, or; provides interactivity to your genealogical data.
