Widgetsets are adapter libraries that provide an interface between a platform-inpedentent sourcecode and platform-specific system functions. Thus they allow for development of platform-native software without requiring to change the source code among platforms.
Therefore, widgetsets form the platform-sensitive "glue" between LCL and operating system.
Development status of widgetsets

Legend:
Working - Stable, most or all parts implemented.
Partially Implemented - Works, but has some features missing
In progress - Someone is working on this
Not Implemented - Nothing done, needs your help
Deprecated - Outdated, obsolete, usage not recommended for new projects
Unknown - Please review whether this component is working, and set its status here
