      Hey everyone! 👋

      I built a module that displays photos from your Nextcloud server as a fullscreen MagicMirror² background with smooth crossfade transitions.

      Key features:

      • OAuth2 authentication (Nextcloud built-in, not third-party)
      • Automatic token refresh — authenticate once, runs forever
      • Smart image resizing with sharp — a 12MB photo becomes ~250KB
      • Raspberry Pi 3 optimized (single-thread, memory-safe)
      • Interactive setup script that guides you through everything
      • Configurable interval, sync, opacity, display mode

      I’m running it on a Raspberry Pi 3B+ and it handles large photos without freezing thanks to the sharp resize pipeline.
