Research direction

Start by reviewing how the web interface renders the monitor and its existing configuration or appearance settings. Clarify whether the first implementation should support a customizable frame, a header, user-defined text, or all of these, and keep the features disabled by default; done should make multiple TinyPilot instances visually distinguishable.

Description

enhancement

I use multiple TinyPilot to control multiple machines, I sometimes confuse which machine do I control.
I want to change appearance of the web interface to distinguish.
For example:

  • add color customizable frame around the monitor
  • add header and show text(e.g. host name or set by user)

These appearances are disabled as default.
