Dive into the fun world of DIY with our course on building a Raspberry Pi smart mirror! Learn to code and design your very own magical mirror project.
This course is your ticket to building an awesome smart mirror using Raspberry Pi! You'll learn coding (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) while having a blast creating a display with a clock, news, and weather updates.
Learn how to build, design, and customize your very own Raspberry Pi powered smart mirror!
This course is meant as a active learning/DIY project to learn the basics of scripting languages, while working on something fun.
This course will focus upon teaching you to setup and build your own smart mirror display. This involves creating and coding a custom web page and hosting it on a Raspberry Pi using the Apache HTTP server application.
To learn how to build your own magic mirror, we will first focus on writing a base HTML script for the website, and adding basic elements - a clock, a periodically updating news feed, and a periodically updating weather feed, to it. Once this is done, we will create a cascading style sheet (CSS) doc and customize our web page to give us the required display for a smart mirror.
This course involves the use of basic concepts from multiple programming languages. We will be using JavaScript to program the clock display. We will also be using PHP for the two RSS feeds - news and weather. Finally, we will put all this together in our HTML script and edit the presentation of our HTML document using a CSS file to make the display visible through a partially mirrored surface.

The instructors delivery was acceptable. However, the course lacked content. The instructor didn't explain how to turn the monitor into a mirror. He never explained how to apply the mirror film or how to make a frame for the monitor.
YouTube has better tuttorials and are free.
Leider Software-Versionen nicht aktuell ... sollte mal auf den neuesten Stand gebracht werden. Praktische Beispiele sind gut und umsetzbar.
Untertitel könnte verbessert werden.
Company identifier on the screen gets in the way of course content.
Good class for getting a magic mirror up and running fast!
GOOD EXPLANATION
Es muy buen material pero creo que podría mejorar indicando como regresar a su configuración original al raspberry. GRACIAS!
Good course overall. The code in the videos does not match the .pdf files included in the content.
Good course for the basics. Not a lot on how to customize your mirror but it will get you up and running.
