It's not clear what it does, or how to make it work - especially for new users. The only information is a bit of a comment in config.h

// WEB DATA CONFIGURATION
// #define WEB_DATA_WIDGET_URL "" // Use this to make your own widgets using an API/Webdata source
// #define WEB_DATA_STOCK_WIDGET_URL "http://<insert host here>/stocks.php?stocks=SPY,VT,GOOG,TSLA,GME" // Use this as an alternative to the stock ticker widget
