Made a custom plugin for TRMNL e-ink display with my OpenClaw🦞 today! Teaching reading by hanging this e-ink display in my kids bedroom, showing custom content designed to match their phonics curriculum 🤓📖

The result is nifty

@useTRMNL @openclaw I love this

@useTRMNL @openclaw You're about to productize home schooling and unlocking the full system for the masses in a modern connected approach. I hope you're documenting all of this! $$$$$$

@useTRMNL @openclaw this is the kind of use case that matters more than any saas dashboard. custom learning content for your own kids, built in an afternoon. nobody would have made this for you

@useTRMNL @openclaw We are definitely going to come so far so fast What's the phrase that people like to use? gradually then suddenly

@useTRMNL @openclaw Such a creative use. Love it! Keep the ideas coming, Jesse!

@useTRMNL @openclaw This is a fantastic use case for OpenClaw! Using AI agents to create personalized educational content for children shows the real power of autonomous agents. Curious - did you use any specific MCP tools to connect OpenClaw with TRMNL?

@useTRMNL @openclaw love how you apply this stuff on real day-to-day family problems

@useTRMNL @openclaw Love this! Creative AND Practical (and nerdy!) 🤣

@useTRMNL @openclaw Sidenote, can you tell us more about your house structure ? like what is that room?

@useTRMNL @openclaw its a geodesic dome greenhouse ;)

@useTRMNL @openclaw Want!!!!!

@useTRMNL @openclaw I just got the inkplate to do the same!

@useTRMNL @openclaw I'm teaching my kids with that book and my vision was to gamify it such that any kid who can use a mouse can begin working through each level/less at their pace with rewards - similar to Alpha School. Open source that, and education is fully revolutionized!

Love what you are doing Jesse - what do you think about using OpenClaw to to create an OpenSource competitor to Alpha School? I could see that being really cool to package up the personalized learning and then also assist in the exploration of experiential learning like so much of your work seems to accomplish.

@useTRMNL @openclaw ** taps sign **

@useTRMNL @openclaw Using OpenClaw + TRMNL to teach reading is a perfect example of agentic AI meeting real-world impact

@useTRMNL @openclaw Have been loving watching and learning from your journey! A 5-minute game that will fill a gap in 100 Easy Lessons is Switch It: (Develop the underlying skills that allow for good decoding, while mastering letter-sounds faster.)

@useTRMNL @openclaw I love what this opens up in terms of customisation of dictionary. I imagine the kids will be more into learning how to read when it’s words related directly to them and their lives rather than a fixed syllabus from the book!

@useTRMNL @openclaw This is so awesome

@useTRMNL @openclaw You may want to read the review of this phonics curriculum by @HannahWardEdu before doing too much with that font. The font can make the transition to regular books more difficult for some kids.

@useTRMNL @openclaw Gotta get your agents on to re-using old hardware (old ipads, old kindles). This is great!

@useTRMNL @openclaw I love how people are like “with my open claw” you just used Claude. What about this project required open claw? You can talk to your llm through telegram using python. Why did you need openclaw to do this? Also this thing is stupid af 15min refresh rate??? wtf is it

@useTRMNL @openclaw I need the transcript of this video @grok .

@useTRMNL @openclaw Wow. What a cool usecase! You amaze us everyday!!

@useTRMNL @openclaw This looks very cool, are you able to share the trmnl plugin ? Would love to display it on mine

@useTRMNL @openclaw I have to ask my agent how to share it lol, but yes happy to!

@useTRMNL @openclaw Greetings Jesse, I love your content. Would you be so kind as to enlighten me on what models your are utilizing running openclaw?

@useTRMNL @openclaw I’ve been mixing it up but getting best results with anthropic models… that said I very much plan on using local models soon and am excited about the self reliance and savings aspect of them!

@useTRMNL @openclaw Gratitude, I appreciate the response.

Oh, nice, I played around with this and an Inkplate for a while. I've moved to using AI to make a Skylight clone that I can fully customize that I beam to my main TV. Then I'm building an NFC reader with custom cards the kids can use to tap off subjects they've finished on the daily task list, or play media. AI is walking me through how to wire up Arduino, it's been a lot of fun.

@useTRMNL @openclaw Is this using canvas? I'm still trying to understand all it's tools. Would be cool for you to sell a program on how you build your stuff!

@useTRMNL @openclaw this is amazing

@useTRMNL @openclaw What is that phonics curriculum ?

@useTRMNL @openclaw Nice! I had interesting conversations with Claude analysing an 8 year olds mental model regarding math based on a test they did. From there you can address the mental model gaps / inaccuracies directly. Are you doing anything in that vein?

@useTRMNL @openclaw I like this. Obviously in DISTAR glyphs the s with a /z/ sound isn’t canon, but they also bring the kids name in early which usually won’t follow glyph-sound correspondence either. Bringing in common words like this early is the right sort of flexibility.

@useTRMNL @openclaw Very cool. I bet your openclaw can find a way to increase the refresh rate if you want to achieve your goal.

@useTRMNL @openclaw Apparently it’s limited in trmnl side

@TKozzer @openclaw JIT refresh coming *very* soon

@TKozzer @openclaw 💕

@useTRMNL @openclaw @chopchopava please follow Jesse, set alerts and summarise the info into kids channel with actionable

@useTRMNL @openclaw I need something like that for French that is also not phonetic, just like English.

@useTRMNL @openclaw What is causing the 15min refresh delay?

@useTRMNL @openclaw It’s a limitation on the trmnl side
