      @akkor - Ugh. Why would you want to use Electron if you didn’t have to? There’s already a web browser on your Pi. Just point it at the MM server and be done with it.

      I’ve learned that you can get Chromium to start in kiosk mode at a particular URL with about an hour of research and testing. Minimal swearing was involved.

        @bhepler Electron is already a premade solution that works great. However using Chromium in Kiosk mode is also a nice and easy solution. And it may solve the issue here.

          I Have setup chromium to autostart and it’s ok
          But I would like use Electron to use the voice command on client like this one https://github.com/mykle1/Hello-Lucy or https://github.com/joanaz/MMM-MirrorMirrorOnTheWall but I don’t know if it’s doable in server/client mode

            @akkor I don’t think you can use Hello-Lucy in client mode.
            But I bet the developer @Mykle1 knows it.

                    @Akkor ok so wait for @Mykle1

                    I never even thought about trying it. I just run standard installations. If @idoodler doesn’t think it will work, it probably won’t. However, you could always try for yourself.

                      @mykle1 I am currently unable to test it. I quickly checked your code on my phone, but I didn‘t quite got your code :flushed_face:

                      I am curious, how did you make the voice recognition?

                          I didn’t mean that YOU should test it. I meant that @Akkor should test it as it is he that is looking for that functionality.

                          I am curious, how did you make the voice recognition?

                          I didn’t. MMM-voice was already written by @strawberry-3-141. It’s a fantastic piece of software. I just made some additions/modifications to original so that I could hide/show individual modules, hide/show pages of modules, hide show all modules, turn the display on and off, audio, all through the use of notifications. I use it every day for a year now. It’s stable, very fast and does exactly what I want it to do.

                              Why I think it won’t work. You’ll be running MM and MMM-voice on the server machine. The client machine will only have a browser pointed at MM running on the server machine. The client has no way of accepting the voice commands because only the browser is running.

                              Now, if you had a microphone (at the client machine) with a cable that reached all the way to where the server machine is . . . :)
