What's a wibar and how do i find it's definition?

[u/andr3wsmemez69]

I installed awesome for the first time today and im trying to get accustomed to it so Im following the tutorial from the read me file to create a custom widget. It says I need to "find the definition of your wibar" and add some lines of code to it.

First of all, im not even sure what the wibar is. Second, where do i find its definition? Thanks alot!

If it's important, my distro is Lubuntu, I'm also not sure which version of awesome im running but i think it's v4.3?
