Have you decided on an OS ?

gokrazy might be a good fit for super low resource device . I run it

https://github.com/gokrazy

for apps you can use Fyne or gioui

https://github.com/fyne-io/fyne

https://github.com/gioui

I use gio cause it’s gives the most flexibility. It would not be hard to get it running with gio and the community would probably help you ! They are pro open source .

This makes it very lean and easy for you and others to build apps for it .

They are using QT

Gioui works the same way but is fully open source

gioui is designed to paint to a OS provided canvas

Also AdGuard ad blocker is programmed in go so if you wanted to add a web browser it would be relatively easy to integrate AdGuard into it .

gioui is similar to QT but

@gedw99 thank you for your comments! Right now we are using Raspberry Pi OS Bullseye since it's working out-of-the-box.

(btw I'm one of the author of cutiepi-shell so I'm flattered ;-)

gedw99 commented 2 years ago

no worries.
