A Seeed e1003 e-ink display with Claude-written ESPHome firmware
Claude wrote ESPHome firmware so a Seeed Studio e1003 shows weather, a calendar and rotating photos without the cloud, refreshing every ten minutes on about three weeks of battery.

The full story
The Seeed Studio e1003 is a battery-powered e-ink display. Its owner set it up by the front door to show the weather, a calendar and other information, rotating through their own photos and refreshing about every ten minutes.
They used Claude to program the firmware in ESPHome, so the display talks to Home Assistant locally and doesn't depend on Seeed's cloud. They expect about three weeks between charges.
