Build this looping slideshow viewer to show off beautiful artwork on the Adafruit MagTag grayscale E-Ink display!

CircuitPython makes it simple to make a looping image slideshow, and the MagTag library simplifies the use of the buttons, NeoPixels, and the speaker to give you a user interface with visual and audio feedback! You can pause and play your slideshow, advance or go back to an image manually, and turn on and off audio feedback.

Grab some magnetic feet to display your MagTag Slideshow on a refrigerator, filing cabinet, or other ferrous surface. Or use the built-in mounting holes and some M3 screws to affix it to a 3D printed stand or other display mount.
