This package (@digitalyacht/sk-on-kindle) definitely has some potential, as it does not require my Kindle to be jailbroken and works out of the box - almost.
I found out that if any information is missing the entire page refuses to load.
It's easy to get around using the package (@essense/simulate-paths) and simulate the missing data, in my case right now I simulate:
environment.depth.belowKeel
environment.wind.angleApparent
environment.wind.speedApparent
As I'm developing from home and got a VPN from my kindle to my boat, and my sensor are turned off at the boat
Unfortunately it's not written in a way that makes it possible to select "any" data from SignalK which is ideal, right now it can be hardcoded into something relevant but I would like a more dynamic solution. Motor temps when not sailing, autopilot info during crusing etc...
Trying to get other apps to function on the Kindle but as of yet, no luck.
