Comment (by wonderboymusic):

 getting a widget by itself may be useful for admin screens, but to build a
 front end, you actually need access to Sidebars. See something I am using
 here: https://highforthis.com/wp-json/graphql/v1/sidebars

 Without the sidebar context and a representation of the widget HTML, how
 useful is the data?
