        Hi there,

        I am Sandra, nearly 60 years old and living in Germany. Few days ago I found this project and I love it. Yesterday I did my first steps with MagicMirror. Therefor I am using a Raspi3 B+ and still an older 24" Full HD Display.
        I got it running and made first adjustments of the existing modules to dig in. Well, it´s not realy trivial for an old woman but I think I will get it.

        Many thanks to all participants for this amazing project.

        Kind regards
        Sandra

                  @foxapplepiestyx not really a good place to learn that stuff… you should take some of the online courses…

                      Hi, I’m a 70 yr old grandma who was “forced” into learning how to rebuild my raspberrypi. My son made me one about 7 yrs ago but it got a corrupt card. He wasn’t able to replace it so I took it in to the geek squad as they said they could program it for me. After approximately 3 days later I got it back but nowhere near what I wanted.
                      Sooooo, I read some stuff, looked around, sat down and put it together. I’ve had a lot of help from the forum which I am very grateful for.
                      This will probably be my only project into coding, but it has been interesting and educational.

                              Hi all
                              I’m also very new to the Magic Mirror and loving the learning curve.
                              I’m 54 and live in Hertfordshire UK with my wife n growing kids.
                              I used to be a toolmaker, so have always loved making anything.
                              I used to run a Drone business a few years ago, but now have slowed down and enjoy 3D printing and designing and making things I need.
                              I’m really loving making this mirror and working out what modules I want to add.
                              I’m just hoping the modules keep evolving as it’s such a shame when they stop.
                              I hope to start to learn in the new year how to code and maybe come up with my own one day.
                              Loving this community and the support it brings🙏
                              Boys & their Toy’s !

                                      I’ve been here in this forum for some time and I did not see this post.

                                      I’m Luis, and I was born in Barranquilla, Colombia. I’m currently living Canada for about 11 years. I am 42.

                                      I studied aeronautical engineering and I have a master in aviation management. I speak 5 languages so far. I work as a Reliability Analyst in the aerospace industry.

                                      I started using MagicMirror in 2020 as a hobby, to learn a bit of coding. Now with all the support of the community, I have a dashboard for me and my family at home. It works as an agenda, I check my car information, music playing at home, the bus schedule, a camera and even sport results.

                                      I’ll leave some pictures soon in “Show my mirror”.

                                      Greetings,
                                      Luis

                                          Hello,

                                          I know this is an old thread but I thought I would introduce myself anyway.

                                          My name is Bryant and I run a YouTube channel called Reviews for Nerds where I talk about tech that I use in my everyday life. I stumbled across this project while looking for Raspberry Pi projects. I love to tinker and thought the idea of having a calendar hanging in the dining room that the entire family could see would be helpful.

                                          Thanks to all the cool modules out there my simple calendar idea has morphed into a multi-slide display that shows guest wifi password QR Code, out Bring shopping list, local current weather and forecast, family calendar, news snippets, both my channel stats, and even a youtube channel dedicated to watching birds. This has been so fun I am contemplating creating a second Mirror for my office.

                                          Thank you all for all of the hard work put into this. I have learned a lot over the time I have spent on this project and admire the effort and talent that has gone into creating this.
