  Operating system for single function smart frames

  

I have gotten the new Nim-based FrameOS working with two different Waveshare displays. I have two other ones waiting to be tested. Check this folder [1] for the currently enabled drivers.

One of the next items on my todo list [2] is to add back support for all the different waveshare drivers out there. They all follow a similar pattern, so I should be able to generate "best guess" drivers for most of them.

Which display do you have?

Well this rang the ol’ memory bells and brought me to Daniel’s Nim drivers for our Pico based products (1). He’s probably the guy to talk to.

Not needing a Python wrapper would definitely help slim down FrameOS into something you could stuff into a fast-loading initrd I guess?

I did something similar with Keybow, static binaries and a custom build system (2) to make a sort-of Pi (Zero) based appliance.

  MagicMirror² is an open source modular smart mirror platform. With a growing list of installable modules, the MagicMirror² allows you to convert your hallway or bathroom mirror into your personal assistant.

  

I use MagicMirror to do this. It's a great piece of software. I'm a bit shocked nobody has mentioned this yet. https://magicmirror.builders/
