I would be very interested in testing the Home Assistant version!

Recently I created a KOReader plugin that let's your control Home Assistant entities from an ebook reader and I am still missing something for my Mac.

Hello HN, I spent way too much time on this project.

First I tried (and failed) to get the printer working through CUPS, but learned a lot about ESC/POS commands and printers.

Once my Apple Shortcut worked, I wanted extras like:

- automatic dates on receipts

- a "checkbox" before each item

Then I went down another rabbit hole: setting up a blog.

I obsessed over which static site generator and template to use, spent a week tweaking, then scrapped it all.

In the end I realized the content matters more, so I just left the template alone.
