Alright, my wife has given me a new task to improve the frame.

THE FRAME - the project that never ends.

Ask

  • Meme occupies the top 4/5ths of the screen
  • Bottom has what is on today’s menu

There are few different parts to this project:

  • Creating and formatting the menu display along side the downloaded meme
  • Retrieving the menu from somewhere we can regularly update
  • Automatic updating of the screen
  • Interface with Discord

  • Currently we update the menu in a google drive doc. Personally I’d like to move away from Google, but for this we have a few requirements:
    • Multi user edit
    • Remote accessible / editable (grocery store)
    • Python API
  • One option is to write the menu on discord itself
    • Not my favorite, as editing a discord message is awkward and it is easy to lose it
  • G-drive would be seamless with our current habits
  • Take a look online, see what others have done.
    • ehhhh I don’t think there really is a good alternative here
