Upstream protocols and reference clients

  • KOReader trmnl-display plugin - Lua plugin running on jailbroken Kindles that paints frames over the TRMNL BYOS protocol. The Kindle Paperwhite 2 testing on Tesserae's TRMNL HTTP path leans entirely on this work.
  • TRMNL BYOS specification - usetrmnl.com's documented protocol that the trmnl_png renderer + /api/display blueprint implement.
