Bedside clock and info screen

vbloke · Oct 25, 2019, 10:54 AM

Had my own custom screen code running for a few years, but wanted to see if MagicMirror could do it better.

it’s currently running
MMM-aqicn
MMM-DarkSkyForecast
MMM-MoonPhase
MMM-network-signal
MMM-Screendimmer
MMM-Sunrise-Sunset (my own module)
MMM-Tado

So far, am rather happy with it. Got MMM-Screendimmer set to turn the brightness down as far as it will go at night and I customised some of the default CSS to change colours and the margins/padding around modules.

@vbloke nice work… hadn’t seen ScreenDimmer before

@sdetweil if you’re using the mirror as a bedside display, it’s invaluable to stop yourself getting blinded.

Very nice. I think I may have to consider going up to a larger size on mine. Currently I’m running a 3.5" screen, but there is no dimming ability.

@vbloke Just curious, does the 7" touch support swipe events? I’m assuming it’s a capacitive touch and does, but wasn’t sure.

@buzzkc I’m not 100% sure. it’s capacitive touch, so it probably does.
