CLUSTER DASHBOARD-INK-KINDLE · 10 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-09-24
Kindle e-ink dashboards
This cluster consists of self-hosted applications that repurpose idle Kindle e-readers as wall-mounted e-ink dashboards, displaying glanceable widgets like weather, calendar, and progress tracking. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from—it predates the index or its members are undated. Among traction leaders, dashink leads with 11 stars, while the other dated members show no activity signal.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
