Nissan's Leaf app doesn't have a home screen widget so I made my own
Nissan's official mobile app for their LEAF electric car doesn't have a widget for quickly checking the car's battery charge status on your phone's home screen, so for a fun side project I decided to make my own using free tools like GitHub Actions, Appium, Tailscale, and Apple Shortcuts.
In plain words
This project provides a home screen widget for Nissan Leaf owners to quickly check their electric car's battery charge status, addressing a gap in Nissan's official mobile app. Built as a personal side project using free tools including GitHub Actions, Appium, Tailscale, and Apple Shortcuts, it allows users to monitor their vehicle's battery level without opening the full application. The solution is designed for Leaf drivers seeking convenient access to essential charging information on their phone's home screen.

Hi everyone, I built PyXL — a hardware processor that executes a custom assembly generated from Python programs, without using a traditional interpreter or virtual machine. It compiles Python -> CPython Bytecode -> Instruction set designed for direct hardware execution. I’m sharing an early benchmark: a GPIO test where PyXL achieves a 480ns round-trip toggle — compared to 14-25 micro seconds on a MicroPython Pyboard - even though PyXL runs at a lower clock (100MHz vs. 168MHz). The design is stack-based, fully pipelined, and preserves Python's dynamic typing without static type restrictions.…
