      Is it possible to use a different (additional) port to show a different page? I would like to use it to make a backend, so that I do not allways have to change the files via ssh. And I want to do a module to send messages to the mirror. Or would it be better to use a webservice or something like this?

      Thanks for your help! :)

        Anything is possible, you just have to write the code to do that as it doesn’t exist at the moment.

        A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?

          I’ve got another idea, that I’m just working on. It doesn’t have to be another port. As I saw in the description you could make a module named backend and put a website inside the public folder. I’m going to try this and will keep you up to date. I’ve got another question. I don’t know, if I should ask it here or make a new Thread.
          Is there any database on the rpi3 installation that would be prefered to use?

            ok i just found something new (for me)
            you could do this “port-thing” if you put this:
            this.expressApp.listen(3000)

            I allready read a lot in this forum, but found that this page i another great source of information:
            https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues?page=2&q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aclosed

            It’s a little bit of Topic. I know and I’m sorry… :)
