MAGICMIRROR SITE
magicmirror.builders


Your first stop for MagicMirror info is the home site
for the software. You’ll find some handy links, such
as those to the blog for updates on the project, GitHub
for the source code and more in-depth configuration
options for the mirror, as well as a link to the forum
and available modules. It’s also a good way to quickly
introduce a friend to the concept.


MAGICMIRROR FORUM
magpi.cc/2je2dXI


The community for the MagicMirror lives here, and
the answer to many problems you might face in the
long term have likely already been answered there.
They’re a friendly bunch, though, so if you can’t find a
solution, you can always have a chat with them to find
out what might be going wrong. You’ll also be able to
compare notes about any modules you decide to make
or any other little upgrades or building tips you might
want to know about.


MAGICMIRROR MODULE
DEVELOPMENT DOCUMENTATION
magpi.cc/2jebFux


Fancy making your own custom module for your
mirror? You’ll need to know how the API and code
generally works, and you can do that with the
documentation provided on the MagicMirror GitHub
repo. We’ve seen some excellent add-ons for the
mirror code, including seasonal variations and live
train times. All you need is a way to get the data!
