wrolpi VS Arcade

The project website: https://wrolpi.org

can you make a local copy of it? offline wiki, https://github.com/lrnselfreliance/wrolpi, music/movies...etc

I thought about creating one of these in the past, but it didn’t fit my needs. I decided to start my own project, called WROLPi. It also uses a Raspbery pi as its base, but also has a Debian installer. I have RPi images available at https://wrolpi.org as well as a link to a demo (the demo needs an update, lots of new features since it’s creation).

The basic premise of WROLPi is creating your own off grid digital library: videos, web archives, PDFs, ebooks, etc. I have full text search for all of these. Offline maps as well via Open Street Map. Wi-Fi hotspot. Automatic downloads of videos (entire channels), RSS feeds, etc.

Look into Internet in a box or WROLpi as ways to serve the content. (A cookie to anyone who writes a howto on getting them both running on the same box; they have some overlap but serve different needs.)

Creator here, I have pre-built images for Raspberry Pi available at https://wrolpi.org if you are interested.

did i post this to you last time?

etc etc

also, check out wrolpi

https://wrolpi.org/ Been having a great time on my side-project WROLPi. Its preparedness-oriented software which allows you to create an offline library. Videos, web archives, maps, epub/pdf, etc. Really easy search, low power usage if you run on in a Raspberry Pi. Just put out the first Raspberry Pi image, which makes installation super simple. Hoping to get a Debian image soon.

Currently "videos" is pretty well flushed out. Still some work to do with web archives. Maps has been a huge headache simply because maps are so large. Got PDFs and EPUBs searchable recently.

An abbreviated list of the technologies I've used to built it: Python, ReactJS, Open Street Map, yt-dlp (videos), SingleFile (web archives).

I have created a project specifically for this. It is free, open-source software. Check it out https://wrolpi.org

I work on a Python game engine called Arcade[1] and other projects within it's Github organization such as pytiled-parser. We also help to drive continued development and improvement within Pyglet[2]. Recently, my efforts have been focused on creating a version which can be run in web browsers by using Pyodide and WebGL[3], though that is still fairly early stages.

Arcade's primary focus is on being an educational tool for beginner programmers, so my hope is that with browser compatibility we can lower the barrier to entry further and make it more accessible and easy to get started with. In a similar vein to the goals of browser compatibility, we've recently enabled full compatibility with Raspberry Pi through the use of OpenGL ES(and this was largely only possible thanks to the huge amount of work that everyone involved in the Mesa project puts in)

I'm not the original author of Arcade, but I am a current maintainer and put a substantial amount of time into it and it's community.

Interesting, looks like some of the default fonts are not getting frozen as part of the executable? I opened an issue: https://github.com/pythonarcade/arcade/issues/1252

Added clear method to UIManager (#1116)

Arcade can now run in headless mode on linux servers opening more possibilities for users in for example the data science community (#1107). See Headless Arcade for more information.

Fixed issue #978, copy button in examples moved to the left to prevent it disappearing.
