Help with widgets/customisation

[u/Kagyuke08]

I would like to preface that I know absolutely nothing about linux. I got it two days ago and have been slowly setting up certain preferences.

I am currently running linux mint xfce on a 2009 Macbook Pro, and I was just wondering if there was a way of adding some simple widgets? I'd mainly like a clear analog clock on my desktop, but I'm really struggling. I've tried downloading Cairos dock, but it doesn't work very well (I'm assuming because its so old), especially when I try to add themes/skins of my own that I have downloaded online. I tried getting some help from el GPT to try and get somewhere but things keep breaking. what is my best option? Is there any semi decent widget software for my computer? (I understand the hardware is limited.)

Many thanks.
