I would like to have a screen in my home displaying a summary of different information that is relevant to me, like weather forecast, bus/train times, news headlines, etc. I was planning to use a Raspberry Pi and either buy a screen to display the information or just show it on my TV. It could probably be as simple as serving a page with HTML and JavaScript and then displaying it in a full screen web browser.
I feel like this is probably something that a lot of people want so I am wondering if there is something out there already that can easily be extended with custom “widgets”. Nextcloud actually has a dashboard that’s a bit like this but ideally I’d like something that is standalone and easier to extend with my own widgets.
Anyone have any recommendations?
The first thing that springs to mind is something like a “magic mirror”. I haven’t delved into it a ton, but I’m fairly certain that it would be able to hit most of your criteria.
That being said, I’d think it could be a decent enough starting point to at least find other things in the same vein.
