"Most productivity tools are designed to grab your attention constantly with pop-up reminders, blinking notifications, and endless browser tabs competing for focus throughout the day. But sometimes, the best way to stay focused is to keep your most important information quietly in view, not fighting for your eyes or demanding immediate action every few minutes. Finding that balance between visibility and distraction remains surprisingly difficult in modern productivity software."
"The InkyPi E-Paper Productivity Display is a DIY project that addresses this challenge directly and elegantly with minimal hardware. Built with a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W and a crisp E-Ink screen, it turns your to-dos, deadlines, and progress into a calm, always-on dashboard that helps you stay organized without the noise. The project is open-source, customizable, and refreshingly simple in its approach to keeping you on track without overwhelming you."
"InkyPi's minimalist design starts with a 7.3-inch or 7.8-inch E-Ink panel from Pimoroni or Waveshare, framed in a simple IKEA picture frame that looks more like a piece of art than a gadget on your desk. The Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W sits discreetly behind the display, keeping the whole setup slim, silent, and consuming minimal power throughout the day. The paper-like display is easy on the eyes and never glows or flickers."
The InkyPi E-Paper Productivity Display uses a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W paired with a 7.3-inch or 7.8-inch E-Ink panel to create a calm, always-on productivity dashboard. The panel fits inside an IKEA picture frame with the Pi mounted behind, producing a slim, silent, and low-power device. The paper-like E-Ink screen displays text and graphics with high readability across a room, requires no backlight, and minimizes eye strain. The open-source dashboard supports a growing library of roughly 20 plugins and is configurable via a web-based interface accessible from any device on the same network.
