UPDATE December 2023
I'm archiving off this repo - There are other, better toolkits for generating digital signage since the
Raspberry pi came out, info-beamer being a good example. Upstream at RPI refactored their signage significantly
since I used this. see them for more details if you want to use it. It was a student project so expect people
involved to have moved on
