Webframe

A simple digital picture frame as a website.

With webframe you can turn any device with a screen and browser into a digital picture frame.

To minimize friction (sync, multi user support) the images are downloaded from a webdav share (e.g. nextcloud).

This project is heavily inspired by TeleFrame.

This also works on (old) android devices using termux.
