PiWrite – Kindle Paperwhite to Write

Article note: ...This is a webserver running on a Pi Zero serving a page to the feeble internal browser on the Kindle over Wifi, and talking to a Bluetooth keyboard. There's that SolarWriter app that does the same trick with a phone as the intermediary. Either way, there are two relatively powerful computers (as in... bigger than minicomputer that would have served a whole department in the late 70s) running Linux and a complete web stack at each end, to attach a keyboard and display for simple text editing. It's shocking how the "little eink terminal" market has failed and always spirals into this kind of weird complexity and/or goofy proprietary closed devices freewriter type things.
