Hi,

I want to turn a Raspberry Pi with a Screen into a digital photo frame
and searching for applications to realize this.

My prefered way would be:

\- Application runs on Server in a Docker Container
\- WebUI which shows a Slideshow of specific albums

Nice to have:

\- Syncs with google photos

Anyone a idea?

Thanks!

I use [this-week-in-past](https://github.com/RouHim/this-week-in-past)
with a couple of Android devices and Fully Kiosk browser.  Works
great, the dev is great he added a feature for my specific use in
under day.

Tied the containers into Home Assistant with Portainer.  HA ties into
the Portainer API and sets the state of the containers , Fully Kiosk
controls the state of the screen.
