Impulse

I love Momentum Dash. I love how serene I feel just staring at the gorgeous backgrounds and how inspired I get from the quotes, but it's only available as a plugin for Chrome or Firefox. I wanted to be able to get some serenity and inspiration for those times when I'm not using either of those (eg on mobile) as well.

This is a Momentum Dash-inspired home page, that's restricted to displaying a background (with credits), a quote and a greeting/time. If you want all the other great features, I highly recommend going for the original and the best.

Configuration and Installation

In order to use the configuration process, you will need to have lots of python3 stuff installed and a flickr API key.

Python dependencies:

• Python3
  • Flask
  • json
  • Request
  • PyYAML
  • Jinja2

To create the static site:

1. Copy defaults.tmpl.yaml to defaults.yaml and edit as appropriate.
2. Run python3 make.py to generate the static file impulse.html.
3. Copy impulse.html somewhere online and set your browser's home page to it.

In order to get gallery IDs from Flickr, paste the gallery link into lookupGallery API explorer and look for the "id" part of the gallery tag.
