When Google or Live Search doesn't give me what I'm looking for I'm coming
here... So I have already seen that link, thank you.

What I'm wondering is if there is a way to use C# (or any other language) to
create the gadgets?

A gadget is written in HTML and script (as in javascript)
that is how they are made. They are not compiled apps and therefore c# is
not whats required. that link tells you that. Open it and search for
"Each gadget is developed using HTML and script"

Please post Vista related questions to the Vista forums at :

That said, gadgets are using HTML and SCRIPT (eg. jscript), but you can use C# to build
components exposed to script as COM objects.
You should definitely consult the Windows SDK before you start Gadget development on Vista.
