I built an e-ink dashboard for displaying the map and weather for your city using Inkplate and a Raspberry Pi.
I guess it's yet another weather dashboard post? This is my take on a weather display using a Raspberry Pi to generate an image from HTML and an [Inkplate 10](https://soldered.com/product/inkplate-10-9-7-e-paper-board-copy/) to display it. A while back I was inspired by /u/speedyg0nz and his [MagInkCal](https://www.reddit.com/r/raspberry\_pi/comments/pugv7d/maginkcal\_magic\_calendar\_project\_completed\_full/) project so I decided to do my own take on it. I ended up splitting my project into a server-client setup where the server (Raspberry Pi) is responsible for generating the image at a certain time each day and the client (ESP32) would render the image onto an e-ink display. On a 2000mAh battery I get approximately 4-5 months of charge, though I think 6 months is possible with 3000mAh. I'm currently tracking and updating battery life for this project on my GitHub repo. Features: - Accuweather/OpenWeatherMap API for weather data - [Google Static Maps API](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/maps-static/overview) for generating the map image of the configured location. - MQTT publish/subscribe features for the client to send logs to the server. - Automatic daylight saving handling. - Deep sleep ultra-low power usage (~21µA) Client and server code here: https://github.com/chrisjtwomey/inkplate10-weather-cal Let me know what you guys think! I'm quite happy with the system I put together, I don't normally publish projects as I never really feel they're ever in a state to share (also I'm terrible at READMEs). Fun fact: e-ink displays are incredibly expensive and... delicate.

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

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 :)
