What is sorta-modular-examples?

This repository holds example code for building custom widgets on Sorta Modular, a modular smartwatch face made for the Pebble Time 2. Sorta Modular supports something called a Custom URL complication: a small slot on the watchface that can fetch a tiny piece of JSON data from any web address you control, then display it using the same built in renderers the watchface already uses for other widgets, such as text, gauges, columns, lines, and timelines. The full specification for these widgets, including templates and the JSON schema they follow, lives in separate documentation linked from the README rather than in this repository itself. This repo focuses purely on working sample integrations that show the idea in practice. Two examples are included. The first, custom-url-service, is a very small Node.js server with no external dependencies that demonstrates every supported widget template, including text, gauges, columns, lines, a text area, and timelines, plus a couple of examples of how error responses should look. It is described as the best starting point for anyone who wants to write their own custom endpoint from scratch. The second example, home-assistant, is a custom integration for Home Assistant, the open source home automation platform. It exposes entities from a Home Assistant setup, such as sensors or switches, as widget endpoints reachable over a local network. Any number of widgets can be defined this way, each with its own URL, so different watch faces or slots can each show a different piece of home data, like a thermostat reading or a light's status. Together the two examples cover both a bare-bones reference server for developers building something custom, and a ready-made integration for people who already run Home Assistant and want their smartwatch to reflect their home data. The project is written in Python according to its repository metadata, alongside the JavaScript used in the Node example.
