With the World Cup kicking off, I spent the weekend building a few Appspace components that show live scores right where people already are: on the intranet and on digital signage. They're free to grab and drop in. Here's what you can do and how to add them.
What I made
Three pieces, split across the two Appspace surfaces:
| Component | Where it runs | What it shows |
|---|---|---|
| World Cup Games | 🧩 Widget — Intranet / Employee App | Live scores, kick-off times and results, browse day by day, goal scorers, and a tap-through match view with line-ups |
| World Cup Tables | 🧩 Widget — Intranet / Employee App | All 12 group standings, points and goal difference, tap a team for its results and fixtures |
| World Cup Live Scores | 📺 Card — Digital Signage | A full-screen scoreboard for screens: today's fixtures, a big live view when a match is on, plus up-next and recent results |
How it works
-
Live data, no setup. Scores come straight from a free public feed (ESPN) and refresh on their own, faster while a match is in play.
-
Fits anywhere. Works from a narrow sidebar to a full-screen 16:9 or portrait 9:16 display, and on phone, desktop and signage.
-
Lightweight. Plain HTML/JS, no accounts or API keys to manage.
Where to get it
Everything's open on GitHub, with the ready-to-upload ZIPs in the repo:

How to add them
Widgets (Games & Tables) → Intranet / Employee App
-
In the Appspace Console, go to Settings → Widgets.
-
Click Import and choose the widget .zip.
-
Add the widget to a homepage or community and (optionally) tweak the settings. Every option has a sensible default, so it works out of the box.
Card (Live Scores) → Digital Signage
- In the Console Content Library, upload world-cup-scores-card-1.0.0.zip
. -
Add the card to a signage channel or playlist (remember to update the playlist so it actually plays 🙂).
-
Drop it on a full screen or a media zone. No configuration needed.
⚠️ A quick heads-up ⚠️
This is a fun side project that I did, not an official Appspace product. There is no warranty or support, and because the data comes from a free public feed, it could change or stop at any time. You're very welcome to take the code, adapt it, or build on it.
Enjoy the football and come on England 🏆
