Beskrivelse

Please note that this model is free for personal use only. If you wish to sell prints of my models i refer you to my commercial licence membership. Membership Join Deskbuddy - Your personal dashboard Deskbuddy is a small smart desk companion built around an ESP32 CYD - 2.8 touchscreen display. It is designed to sit on your desk and give you quick access to useful information at a glance, while the case is made to give the project a clean and practical form that fits naturally into a workspace. What is Deskbuddy? Deskbuddy is a customizable mini dashboard for your desk. It combines a touchscreen ESP32 board with simple software features such as time, weather, notes, timers, and other useful widgets. The idea is to have a compact display that is always visible and easy to use, without needing to check your phone or open extra apps on your computer. It works well as a clock, weather display, focus timer, notes panel, or general desk status screen. The project is still in development so features and improvements are beeing added continuously. Setup and Customization One of the nice things about Deskbuddy is that it is relatively simple to set up. Once the board is installed in the case and connected by USB, the software can be adjusted through the browser interface. In most cases, it is enough to upload the code, add WiFi details, and then configure the rest from the web page. Through the web-interface, you can customize things like: accent colors and theme text colors time and date format timer presets weather location nickname or custom title widgets on the home screen notes and reminders alert behavior This makes it easy to keep the hardware simple while still making the device feel personal. Why build a Deskbuddy? Deskbuddy is a nice project if you want something that is both practical and customizable. It gives an ESP32 CYD a proper enclosure, makes it more pleasant to keep on a desk, and creates a small device that can be customized to your own use. It is also a good combination of 3D printing, electronics, and simple software customization without being overly complicated to get started with.
