    Yeah, but it involves a lot of development. I made this a few months back : https://github.com/ugomeda/esp32-epaper-display

    I'm working on a more "user-friendly" version :)

    That's funny -- I just did the same thing! We both must have read that same earlier post about Visionect and ran out and ordered one.

    I didn't get a chance to write it up yet but here's my software https://github.com/elidickinson/newsvision

    I skipped the HTML renderer and used the python library to push image data right to the display's frame buffer. Seems simpler if you're doing the hard work of turning it into an image yourself anyway. I also grabbed the full list of newspapers and used imagemagick to annotate each image with the paper name and location. It's a little hacky, but seems to work.
