Family schedules can be complex to manage. Thankfully, we have geniuses like Caspar von Wrede who've taken the time to build an open-source solution for us all. Using our favorite SBC, the Raspberry Pi, von Wrede has created a custom dashboard he calls DinkyDash to help his family keep track of all sorts of important data at a glance.
The project is basically a Raspberry Pi outputting a custom dashboard to a screen. This dashboard can be customized and integrated with other tools to suit individual needs. In this case, von Wrede is using it to keep up with chores, events, and schedules. It isn't an interactive design but instead works as a stationary screen that family members can check throughout the day.
The dashboard runs on a web server that von Wrede put together himself. It displays the current date, outputs recurring tasks like you'd find in a chore schedule, and shows countdowns for upcoming events and holidays. Any settings and customizations are done on the backend server side using a YAML file.
