    I did something similar with LEDs. I chose to add a separate WLED controller instead of trying to control the LEDs directly from the Pi. The Pi just tells WLED what state or effect it wants, and the WLED board handles the actual timing and LED control. It keeps the responsibilities separate and avoids adding more real-time work to the Pi.

    @ewingfox said: My wife has a number of friends with the subscription-based touchscreen tools and hinted at being interested in getting one - I didn’t love the idea of (another) monthly cost - and the fact that if the company goes under, we have an expensive paperweight. I tried a few different open source tools but discovered MagicMirror2 and fell in love! Currently have a home screen, an interactive chore chart running -MMM-Chores for my kiddo, a monthly calendar view and a weather tab (still under development). Here’s a brief demo video: You_tube The hardest part was definitely making the custom wood bezel - I was a woodworker, but matching the profile of the refrigerator, keeping weight down, minimizing the profile, and ensuring I only have one flexible cord having to make the corner from fridge side into the MM was definitely a challenge. So far, my wife is really happy with it, and is eagerly submitting feature requests. Ok, sigh, that part might get a little tiring!!! This is an incredible MagicMirror setup, and building a custom wood bezel to match the refrigerator profile while managing a single flexible cord is truly impressive craftsmanship. Avoiding monthly subscription traps with an open-source build is a brilliant move, and navigating your wife’s ongoing feature requests can feel like guiding a journey step-by-step through the 22 Major Arcana cards. Great work on the interactive chore charts, calendar, and weather modules!

    Could you share a screenshot? Are all weather icons stretched, or only some? Could you temporarily disable your custom CSS and check whether the icons are still stretched?
