Dynamic Display at TinkerSpace
Yan created this wonderful tool that could dynamically change the contents of TinkerSpace TV.
The problem
When we wanted to announce something through TV, say a new event or space availability what we used to do is create a poster in Figma, upload it to one of our TV linked google photo accounts and then reload one app to show the posters. This would take time and someone knows Figma was a minimum requirement.
What we ideally wanted
- A TV app or a web app that can run in a TV browser
- Ability to change the contents ( mostly text ) real quick
- No need of re starting / re loading the app / page
What we created
- A web app, with a beautiful UI
- An easy to manage backend
Features
- Text with Heading and Sub Heading
- Image, Full Screen, with one image storage
- Webpage loading of any URL we gives
- Dynamic display / No need to refresh
- Railway station announcement music when updating the content ( Optional )
- Easy to use Back End
TinkerSpace Dynamic Display Front End / What you will see in the TV
Backend where we could make edits and push to TV
