About

stdd (short for "simple time display daemon") is a handy little daemon for the Raspberry PI device that can be used to display the current time on a 7 segment display with a HT16K33 backpack from Adafruit Industries. It makes heavy use of the python libraries published by Adafruit to control the display via I2C.

stov depends on the following software to be installed:

* python 3.0 or higher (2.x versions might work but are deprecated)
