Big Text Notes

A simple Django web application that displays notes in a large font. Each post has a text colour and background colour that can be customised individually.

The home page is configured to show four notes at a time, switching to the next four notes every 6 seconds.

Applications for Big Text Notes

The original motivation for creating this app was to repurpose a 9-year-old tablet running Android 2.3 to be able to show personal notes in a household setting, turning it into a configurable information display that can also be accessed from my other devices.

Setup process

The main prerequisite for Big Text Notes is the Django web development framework, which can be installed from a terminal with Python's pip package manager using the command pip install Django==2.2.

For development, open a terminal and run python3 manage.py runserver to start the Django app.
