Hey everyone,

last weekend at a friends house I saw the Alexa Show (I think?) in action. It was used as a digital family-calendar, weather forecast and music player. It sat there on the fridge like an old school family planer. The music-player wouldnt be relevent to me. But an digital calendar in the kitchen with weather forecast looks really appealing. Do you probably know a privacy-friendly and suitable project with the possibility to implement my CalDav-Calendar(s)? Probably open Source? And without a lot of tinkering? (:

yeah, that’s nextcloud. but how do they input data? I guess its touch based, but is it a touch screen with on-screen keyboard (an android tablet with a web browser could replace that) or do they use a pen, or voice, or something else?

They only showed the voice-controll once. But for me, a input possibilty wouldnt be needed much. It shall just show our calendar, the clock and the weather forecast (: Probably would an old (forked)android tablet be enough. Ill look into this
