Hi, my name is Joe
Im 29 year old from Philadelphia, PA, USA and became interested in building my own smart mirror after seeing one in a department store a few years ago.
I’ve always considered myself tech-savvy but after diving into this, it seems as if my expertises hardly surpassed those who could restart a router lol.
I suffered a traumatic brain injury in 2009, after being mugged by two unknown individuals-- they shot me in the back of my head =/
Despite making-- virtually-- a full recovery, I still suffer memory, comprehension, and concentration issues. Before I get off-topic, I want to say how Michael’s Magic Mirror is what I happened to stumble upon during my hunt for the “smart mirror in the department store.”
I eventually gathered all the materials needed to build my first mirror and proudly fiddle around with it-- tweaking it every chance I get.
I have little knowledge in comp. sci-- being a communications major-- but consider this a huge, new-ish interest of mine.
edit: I just wanted to add how working on the MM has been a form of therapy for me, over the years, and wanted to thank you–Michael and everybody involved-- for this community and making this a project that even I can understand with enough digging.
I just want to apologize now for any and all weirdly worded queries I might have… -
Joe,
I dare speak for everyone when I say, “You are most welcome here.” I’m in NYC. Don’t hesitate to ask any questions. There are plenty of knowledgeable and helpful people here. Go Eagles!

@Mykle1
NYC, cool… have you been living there long? Idk where I read it, but I assumed you were living in Germany.
Anyways, thank you and it’s funny that you mentioned the Eagles since I have made a slide (using MM-Carousel) dedicated to the Eagles and NFL lol.
Your work is much appreciated, here =D -

Nein! ;-)
Born and raised and live right here.
Glad you’re enjoying MM. I found it 3 years ago and I’m still having fun with it.

Nein! ;-)
Lmao, touche =P
Oh, wow 3 years? That was around the time I started this project… Im sorry to hear about the Giants-- not really, though-- but wanna say that Ima follow you on insta-- easier to talk through there, personally.

So, I am Bernard from South Africa. I have been running my mirror for almost 2 years now and loving it. Remodeled my place last week and now I need to find a new home for my mirror. I am a Systems Analyst by trade and code in my spare time. This is an awesome project and I love helping people on the forum who are facing issues etc. Great project guys.

Hello!
I’m Nikola 35, from Croatia.
I started building a door for my electrical cabinet in my house and decided to integrate MagicMirror into it.
I’m programming PLC-s, CNC machines, BASIC and arduinos with a lot of help from internet, but I never writen a single line in java and I’m beginner at C++.
I came searching for help connecting my arduino based solar system management to MagicMirror. -
