How to use this Val

šŸ”‘ Important https://apiflash.com free key required for generating screenshots. (Will update with option to generate on device)

This Val is separated into 2 directories, the api/ and the frames/. Take a look at each frame to see an example of what will be displayed on your e-ink display.

The api/ directory holds endpoints for each Val. These endpoints could be used across projects and will soon be moved to their own. Each one is cached server side (on val.town) to reduce traffic to free/public apis.

Remixes and pull requests welcome!
