I am going to build a magic mirror with out the mirror. Basically I purchased the raspberry pi touchscreen and will use that as the screen. The display will be all the cool weather and time widgets on the magic mirror. I envision placing this in the kitchen as a quick heads up on time, weather. Thinking maybe to show pictures or display headline news??? Not sure. What would be some great modules or widgets for the display?

@cowboysdude I think you have almost the same setup I want. In fact I think you have the same touchcreen stand I got.

Is there a way to have multiple background-images to slideshow? I have lots of html/jquery/css workarounds but wanted to see if anyone had a good magic mirror hack?

@billp100 thanks! This really is nice. You did good work. I appreciate you sharing this seeing the two side by side really helps me understand how to manage this better. Big week, will get back fo it this weekend.

@billp100 Thumbs up

@billp100 That is awesome! I would love to take a look at your config file if you are willing to share. Thanks!

@billp100 That is awesome. I am just working with the config file. How to you change the icons? Also trying to figure out how to add the electron options in correctly. I need to change the screen size.

Nice I am working on it now

yes that is what I am talking about. Magic Mirror minus the mirror. We don’t need it to be a + music player. But this is similar to what I envision.
