The Tidbyt is an incredibly fun device. Creating custom apps for it is fun and easy. But getting to enjoy your own creations isn't. Getting an app into the app store can take a while. And of course, you may have private apps that simple aren't suitable for public release.
This is a very basic, very much WIP rendering daemon which you can run on your own server. You can point it to one or more .star files, and one or more devices, and it will, in regular intervals, render the apps and push them to your device via the Tidbyt APIs.
It does not serve your Tidbyt device directly.
Create a config.yaml file in this format:
devices:
foo:
id: severely-foobar-ae3
api_token: "ey..."
