i would like it to be able to be used in the panel, it is, a current problem is that it is not updated after changing the source

Thanks, but I could not figure out how to get it to refresh itself after sources are changed, so I left it as is. This is my first plasmoid, so I thought it was some kind of limitation with them. I will see what I can do about that

not bad to be your first jobs, good job. I hope you can improve it, I can think of some quick ways to solve the bug about the update, however I do not think I have time soon to create a Pull requests. If you do not succeed, write to adolfo@librepixels.com and I will give you some ideas
