For instance an RPI that just boots straight to a full screen browser with nothing else. I’ve used Magic Mirror but I want to switch to a web based dashboard instead.

Edit to clarify: Specifically talking about a cheap computer and monitor setup, not a tablet and touch controls won’t matter.

    If you can get your head around it, NixOS is perfect for this. It’s what we use at work. You configure chromium to open full screen on a certain webpage, instant dashboard with next to no overhead.

      Ooo I do love me some Nix modules. Any particular options to look out for in order to configure something like that?

      Edit:

      It’s programs.chromium.extraOpts isnt it? Lol
