      Yes he is correct you can shrink them down but what I did was really just run basic modules without doing anything to them at all.

      I have the alarm clock module, the NFL module [showing only one team], email, basic small weather module oh and running MMM-Scheduler as well so it’s not on all day and turns off at night so it doesn’t keep me awake with the light :)

      You can pretty much customize any module to fit your needs if you’d like… if you don’t like to use the scheduler module you could also use MMM-voice to just turn off the screen…or add a PIR sensor to turn it on when you want and have it go back off.

      Mine has been running pretty much 24/7 and I have had no issues at all. To each their own. I wasn’t looking to create an all powerful alarm clock I just wanted a basic clock with functions you don’t normally get with a clock like weather or email :)

      Strawberry created the touch alarm and it really is easy to use and it works awesomely!! You can pretty much add your own mp3 file to play the sound you’d like it to play…

      I’m waiting on my custom mp3 somebody is making for me :)

        @wizz you could try

        body {
          transform: scale(0.5);
        }
        

        which should make everything half the original size

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