    @jproehl There’s a forum here that another person got it to run on a Pi Zero I believe…

      @cowboysdude Great! Thanks, I’ll check it out. I’m trying to make a very compact mirror and the Pi Zero would assist the design, especially with the new wireless version of the Pi Zero just released.

        @jproehl keep in mind that it has way less power than a rpi 3, some modules could “freeze” your mirror

        Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

          @strawberry-3.141 Good point, thanks for the reminder. Maybe I’ll just stick with the RPi 3. The frame I’m making for my mirror will be two layers of 3/4" maple (I had some left over flooring material), since I’ve heard the RPi 3 can run a bit hotter than the other RPi models, would it be a good idea to leave off the top board on the back row (next to the wall) to allow for the heat to exit from behind the mirror?

            Bought one to swap out my raspberry pi 3 for another project. Starting from scratch, the curl script command doesnt work. What is the best way to get node.js installed from Pixel?

                @cowboysdude Thanks for that, managed to get it installed.

                Currently trying to get docker running, their guide on their site isn’t as simple as installing these modules xD
