The full story
After getting a new Kindle Paperwhite, the maker's 2014 Paperwhite (sixth generation) sat idle. They jailbroke it and, with a little help from Claude, turned it into a dashboard with dedicated screens for news, a stock portfolio tracker and the weather.
The original Kindle software was left untouched, and KOReader was installed as well.
