Prerequisites
What problem is your feature request going to solve? Please describe..
There's not a good explanation for developing container-based widgets. We can't always wait for Elementor to release the features we need or fix the bugs we've found in container-based widgets. Some features are too custom and will never be included. This is why we need this documentation.
Describe the solution you'd like.
A simple explanation for which classes to inherit and/or methods to override in order to build a widget that supports nested containers. I specifically need a guide on creating a loop widget with loop item template support.
Describe alternatives you've considered.
Other 3rd-party widget plugins may have the features I need, but with additional cost that I don't wish to incur.
Additional context
I think a general guide for container-based widgets would suffice, but I would personally like to know more about building custom loop template widgets.
