If i don’t currently have a monitor is there a way for me to test the output of the MM when running on the zero with Raspbian lite via VNC ?

RE: MMM-MirrorMirrorOnTheWall - Alexa voice control to hide/show modules and display text/images
@joanaz Yeah i suppose i should actually have asked if Alexa pi would run well on a zero? Im assuming it would…its not really doing any processing, just sending stuff to amazon.

Would this run on a pi zero?

@meneldour thanks for the offer! I will give this a shot in a few days and will keep your offer in mind. Really appreciated! Im really excited for this.

RE: [Pi Zero] Midori not using full vertical resolution - 1080x1920
@meneldour Im thinking of switching my installation to a pi zero. What are your thoughts around the performance? Id probably be using things like PIR and bringing in data from OpenHAB, news, weather, calendar etc…

Can Pi3 run MM2 and OpenHab effectively?
Right now I’m running everything separately (MM2 and OpenHab) on 2 separate RP3s. I’m just wondering if I can run OpenHab (running most of the things in my house) and Magic Mirror 2 on the same RPi3 without any performance issues? I would require this to be pretty stable and the family uses OpenHab and not being techy wouldnt be very impressed if it suddenly went down lol. Not sure my wife would know where to start fixing things.
I figure the MM is always on (using a PIR sensor for the screen) and if it has extra bandwidth to run OpenHab might as well do them on the same board that way I can free up the other Pi. I also just got a new Pi Zero specifically for running the MM but then I can also use this for something else.
I’ve been looking around but havent found much on the topic and I can’t say that I’m an expert on Linux resourcing etc…

@Wieber Thanks, I would be using the Button module, PIR sensor module, Wunderlist module, and I want to try adding the Alexa module once i transfer it over to the Pi?
Another thing I was thinking would be to integrate this into my openhab setup to bring in the status of various sensors.

RE: How I got my Magic Mirror working on a Raspberry Pi 0 (zero)
I have MM2 running quite well on my Pi3 but I’d like to free up the Pi3 and use my zero for the MM2. Has anyone seen any real downsides to using the Pi Zero over the Pi3?
