A New Chapter for MagicMirror: The Community Takes the Lead

kai

Dear Michael,
I stumbled across the magic mirror in 2020, and my MM projects helped me to get through Covid-19. Our “main magic mirror” has become the central information point in the hallway, and all family members are happy to have a piece of jewellery like this.
I can only repeat what has already been said here: thank you very much for having realized your idea, thank you very much for making it known to the world and for sharing it with the world, thank you very much for your devotion and commitment to this project and all the support for everyone of us here.

Happy New Year and all the best for you and your family on your further journey!

May the code be with you

Michael, thank you for taking a wild idea and creating this wonderful community around it. I really appreciate all of the work you did to get this project where it is today. It has inspired me to stretch myself in several directions that I probably would not have gone if it weren’t for the potential of the magic mirrors.

We wouldn’t be here without you.

@MichMich Thanks so much for this project. I was looking for a perpetual electronic calendar… probably 5+ years ago. I can across your personal MM2 and hobby page, bookmarked it, and just about forgot about it.

Then during COVID I came across the bookmark and decided to do it as a project. It’s been very rewarding to learn about some of the stuff that is possible with this platform. I even took a series of Javascript, CSS, and HTML classes on Coursera and Udemy.

Also from my side a thousand times thanks for your work and dedication to the project. I promise to not break too much stuff :-)

Michael,

I truly appreciate the work you’ve done, thank you.

Looking back at my archives, the first modification I made to your original code was on March 28th of 2015 (that version still had the code that talked to your washing machine)! How has it been that long?!?!

That first mirror, that is still proudly in our home, is a 40" TV behind mirror glass and we just replaced the TV a couple of months ago, although can’t complain because it was turned on 24 hours a day for 10 years!

I’m still using that original code and still make tweaks now and again. but have sent a lot of people to this “new” version so they can build their own.

Once again, thank you!!

Thanks for your inspiration over the years! I’ve always enjoyed following the progress on the project, and the random tweet about Dutch Television shows.

You inspired me to start creating Teletron, I even included a Magic Mirror Module compatibility layer.

Wish you all the best on your own paths, and may they be filled with innovation, collaboration, and success.

@MichMich

even though I’ve only been exposed to your project in the last year I thank you for all you’ve done. IF I’ve spent hours/days/weeks on my mirror I can only imagine what you’ve gone through. Again, thank you.

I always want to give a special acknowledgement to @MMRIZE & @sdetweil (and the others)
for their assistance and contributions to the community and myself.
