I am happy to note that I have successfully created the Scripture Of The Day project.
My resulting output webpage from this project can be found here: http://www.musimatic.net/pythonprojectwebsites/ScriptureOfTheDay/output.html
Basically, this takes a random verse from the King James Version of the Bible using the ‘kjv’ terminal program, which can be found here and built from source: https://github.com/bontibon/kjv
It is updated daily via a cronjob.
Very happy to have been able to complete this successfully.
Looking forward to continuing progress in my other project, “OutlookTerminalClient”, as I wanted to make a project to easily display current emails from Outlook.
After that, I will continue to explore other programs that morph Python 3 and JS based web frameworks to create interested web applications.
Also, I want to explore more terminal based applications to minmize the amount of bloat on my system.
I am also debating what should be my long-term email application to use, and am debating between the following options:
| Email Terminal Program Name | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|
| mu / mu4e (mu for emacs) | Seems light-weight | No ’ncurses’ interface |
| alpine | Seems easy to use | None that I can see so far |
| OfflineIMAP | Stores emails on local computer | I’m a bit hesitant to store emails locally, but most Linux enthusiasts prefer this route |
