# This
|
||||
Core api and [Esp32 (Microcontroller)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESP32) code for displaying weather data and public transport information on a e-ink display.
|
||||
# What why how
|
||||
This is a project I created that pulls weather data from the internet, transforms it into custom images, and displays them on an e-ink screen powered by an ESP32.
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Project Does
|
||||
|
||||
I wanted a low-power way to see weather information at a glance, so I built this system that:
|
||||
|
||||
- Fetches real-time weather data from online APIs
|
||||
- Processes and converts the data into visual images (temperature graphs, forecast icons, etc.)
|
||||
- Sends these images wirelessly to an ESP32 microcontroller
|
||||
- Displays the information on an energy-efficient e-ink screen
|
||||
- Updates periodically while consuming minimal power

Best way of getting the ESP32 ready for code upload is to follow this guide [WAVESHARE ESP32 GUIDE](https://web.archive.org/web/20250706150325/https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/E-Paper_ESP32_Driver_Board).
|
||||
Once you have it ready so you can upload code to it copy my code in: Esp32_Code/INFOSCREEN_WITH_INTERVAL from this repo.
|
||||
|
||||
Install following libraries (if more is needed search for them and install them too):
|
||||
* ArduinoJson
|
||||
* GUI_Paint
|
||||
* JPEGDEC
|
||||
|
||||
You need the Waveshare examples installed since it uses code from them download them here [Download](https://files.waveshare.com/upload/5/50/E-Paper_ESP32_Driver_Board_Code.7z) or check above link.
