Warka is a framework for building e-ink displays using React as a frontend and Python as a backend.

An ESP32, running a ~100 C++ lines lightweight software, is used to fetch a screenshot file from the backend server and display it in the e-ink display.

With this architecture, you can now iterate super fast on your display and draw anything really quickly.

No need to hardcode icons and bmp arrays in C++ anymore. No need to worry about the size of your text.

The design burden is now on the frontend (React) side. You can implement a dashboard, a calendar, a news feed, a dynamic weather display, a screensaver... you name it!

I'd love to hear your thoughts, ideas, or even see what you build with it!
