# Kindle Dashboard
*Using a Kindle 4 to display weather and train times*
---
This is the image generation code and runtime scripts for my Kindle dashboard that I keep on my nightstand.
![example system](example-image.png)
Much of the Kindle-specific work here was done by [David Hamp-Gonsalves](https://github.com/davidhampgonsalves/Life-Dashboard) and modified a little by myself, as was the general SSR'd image-based architecture. However, the image generation code is my own and was built from scratch using the [Met Office DataPoint API](https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/services/data/datapoint) and the [RealtimeTrains pull API](https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/about/developer/pull/docs/).
The image generation code is an importable Go library within the `imagegen` directory.
## The Kindle
This project runs on a jailbroken Kindle 4 with a couple of additional packages on top. More detail coming soon, but broadly speaking it has the same runtime dependencies as David's version.
