How it works

1

Describe your family

Add names, birthdays, pets, chores, and your Google Calendar link to a simple config file.

2

AI creates your dashboard each morning

Every day at 6am, DinkyDash sends your family's info to Claude, which writes a complete, personalized dashboard.

3

Display it on a small screen

A Raspberry Pi serves the dashboard in the kitchen, hallway, or wherever your family gathers. It refreshes automatically.

Free and open source

DinkyDash is MIT-licensed. Set it up in an afternoon and have a new dashboard waiting for your family every morning.
