A Gramps Gramplet is a view of data that either changes dynamically during the running of Gramps, or provides interactivity to your genealogical data. Gramplets are the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Widget_engine widgets] that are part of Gramps and can be seen in the [[Gramps_4.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Dashboard_Category|Dashboard Category]], [[#Gramplets_available_in_the_Sidebar_and_bottombar_of_other_Categories|Sidebars and Bottombars]] in other Navigator Categories, they provide all kinds of functionality that can be useful for the researcher.
What is the difference between grampletsGramplets, reports, quick views, and tools?
*Reports provide a static output format of your data, typically for presentation
*Quick View provides a typically short, interactive listing derived from your data
