Hi all,
Another ESPHome-Inkplate project from me

Love your project. Thanks for sharing. I was looking into a more general approach of showing a lovelace UI on the inkplate. Processing power and ram for running a full fledged browser is probalby limited. But what about polling a grafic from a web server, updateing the display and sleeping again … .
This here could create a PNG from a lovelace UI and present a PNG via a url.
Doing so possibilities would be endless. Whatever you can create in a lovelace dashboard (your calender e.g.) would be visible on the inkplate.
What do you think?
There is even a sample code to display a picture in the inkplate github. I am not programmer enough to get this going. At least not yet. But I would like to drop the idea to more skilled programmers like you are ,-).

Hi rak, the approach sounds very interesting. how is your project going?
Thank you very much! I will give it a try.
Bei Dir ist auch schlechtes Wetter. 
Unfortunately I’m running HA OS. Any idea how I could run it without docker?
Set up another machine and learn how to run docker containers ,-). Its a life skill. Sorry.

You are right. Finally up and running. 
Has anybody been successful adapting the code for a LILYGO TTGO T5 4.7 Inch E-Paper (ESP32 based)?
