Hello Fellow Signal K Users! #Signalk

I’m excited to announce the release of the first beta version of SKipper, a multi-platform program for displaying Signal K data. Here are a few highlights:

Runs on Raspberry Pi, Windows, Linux, MacOS, Android, iOS, and most web browsers!
Displays any data from Signal K.
Data can be displayed with any combination of multiple types of gauges; some digital, some analog-looking, and some that are a combination of digital and analog.

New version v1.0.22 is available for Linux and Windows users! Mobile platforms are waiting for review and will be available soon!
NEW - SKipper now supports new feature called History Data sets! This feature will allow user to show history graphs with defined Signal K path data on their screen more. To show data set user can use new control Graph that can be customized by user
NEW - SKipper history data sets supports Signal K data set and Influx DB v1 or v2 data sets! ⤵️ #SKipper #Signalk

Since we're all doing and I just put all this thought into my bio, I'm going to cheat a bit:

by day, by night. and when I can.

Some professional interests:

Some other fun:

I'm wondering if it would be fun to create a #SignalK plug in so that the boat can post messages using #ActivityPub
I'm thinking an alternative to commercial tracking from the likes of Predict wind.
As bandwidth going to be very tight for many I'm wondering if the boat could send a very compressed text to a server that then makes it human readable to post onto #Mastodon and onto a map. It might be nice to show more data such as wind speed/angle, depth (if relevant), boat speed, direction.
