The new year means new calendars. This project shows off why an e-ink display makes a great calendar. The clean, crisp and highly legable design draws inspiration from Portal. Because its low powered 4 AAAA batteries should last the whole year. See the full build from Wuspy on GitHub:
This project was inspired by Reddit user u/feefifofeddit who made a prototype of a Raspberry Pi-powered Portal calendar. Unfortunately the display they used has been discontinued, and I wanted a battery powered and wall mountable version, so I designed my own based on the ESP32 platform with the goal of being as low-power and game accurate as possible.
