Kernel/driver TODOs
These exist, but they haven't been written down yet.
Userspace TODOs
The TODOs in this space are organized around what functionality they enable. A table of the important functions that a user may want in the Pinenote and a status are listed below:
| Functionality | Approaches (apps) | Level of support (subjective) | Supports | Does not yet support | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reading Documents | Koreader
|
Great | Fully featured ebook reader; Supports many filetypes; | Handwritten notes | Large user base on many devices; codebase has a somewhat of a reputation for being messy |
Xournalpp
|
Good | Reading/writing PDFs and other files; | No definition support (long-press for definition) | Billed more as a note-taking app than a document reading app |
Themes
A lot of getting the PineNote to work nicely will be theming things appropriately. Please list themes for various components here:
GNOME
Untested: https://github.com/fujimo-t/gnome-shell-theme-e-ink
GTK
Todo
GNOME Configurations
See here.
Sway Configurations
See here.
Documentation TODOs
- Pin Mesa Packages so they don't update when we upgrade other packages
- Add the information near step 5 here.
- Control the backlight
- Building alacritty correctly
- Force a screen refresh?
