A personal raspberrypi powered eink dashboard
epaper.js seems like an interesting java lib. I wrote something pretty similar, though based in python and fully modular, in case you‘re interested :D https://github.com/aceisace/Inkycal

GB Renewable generation forecast (including Octopus energy agile tariff) display using Inky wHAT and Pi Zero
I saw you used Pillow to handle the same font with different hardcoded fontsizes, while it works pretty well for a one-off setup, it‘s not hard modifying the fontsize even on-the-go, e.g. as shown in one of my codes using an E-Paper display: https://github.com/aceisace/Inkycal/blob/30a6f6499e34e8cf10d8b25d84b577f3c0443bdc/inkycal/custom/functions.py#L85 or if you’re interested in the full code: https://github.com/aceisace/Inkycal

I created a little motivational quote bot in Python which displays random quotes throughout the day. Also, I made the case in Blender 3D and it is my first (successful) 3D print! Let me know if you want to see the code for this :)

LoveBox: E-paper display project to leave my girlfriend notes and pictures remotely. (Pi Zero W, Waveshare E-ink Display 7.5", Firebase Real Time Database)
Looks similar to a weather display I did a while back. Nice work on the enclosure!
- Got some cool ideas?

Using Brain-Computer Interface Device to read electrical activity if the brain and then send control signals to Raspberry Pi so that it can toggle LEDs
It is. My first one was, and it was an awesome place to start leaning to work with the PI.

Raspberry Pi 3A + Pimoroni Inky Impression 7 colour e-ink screen + Ikea Himmlesby 10 x 15 cm frame + Some janky Python and Bash scripting = A quite serviceable, automatically updating art gallery
Woah. This is way better than the Waveshare one that I’m using for a weather display. (Shameless GitHub link.)
