Kindle Paperwhite as KIP Cockpit Display

[NahanniV]

There is an app on GITHUB called: "signalk-dashboard-kindle"
The description is: "Web application designed to run on Kindle for displaying Signal K navigation data."
https://github.com/fabdrol/signalk-dashboard-kindle

But I don't see it in the APPstore.

Could someone tell me how to install it so I could give it a try ?

Hi JM,

The configuration file is on the RPI. In the Kindle and other systems it works in the browser and you can simply make a bookmark of the setting.

If I start the Kindle a connection is made with the Rpi. And the index5.html is still in the browser window. Clicking on the window and the data appears.

Typing the complet sentence is a bit difficult with this small window screen. But then you can quickly make a bookmark.

Hi Bram,

By settings and configuration I mean the layout of the screen.
What I am suggesting is adding the ability to save a default layout to the server from whatever device you are using, and then any new devices would get that layout.

My understanding is that the kindle and KOBO do not support the local storage.
