Display Signal K data on Kobo Simple browser ?
#1
I have a couple of waterproof sunlight viewable Kobo Aura H2O e-readers aboard.
They have a built in browser.

I am running the OpenPlotter Distribution (with Signal K server) on a Rpi.

The only SignalK webapp I have found that can be displayed in the Kobo browser is Sailgauge, but it refreshes so often that it is not pretty on the E-Ink display.


I'm wondering if there is a simpler WebApp that might work with the Kobo browser ?
I'd be happy with something that would display SOG, DPT, AWS, AWA as text.

Thanks,
John Middleton.

I know nothing about Node Red.

Pasted this into node red, see the flow, how do I get magnetic heading on my browser ?

OK, I figured out how to see the output of node red.

But, I don't see the output on the Kobo.
I tried changing the colours, but no joy.
It seems to be refreshing, but nothing is displayed.

It seemed promising, I could see the user interface, just not the output.

I did see the output on Chrome, and IOS, just not the e-ink display Kobo Browser.
