History

info-beamer started as a small software project created to show information to the visitors of a small conference on a public projector (called a "Beamer" in German). This required a software that makes it easy to change content, edit code and add/remove content while the software is running. Basically we wanted a highly scriptable live coding environment with a simple API so we could update what's on the screen without interrupting or restarting the display.

No such software (to our knowledge) existed back then, so info-beamer was born. Since then, people asked about using the Raspberry Pi to show info-beamer content and the software was ported over. This wasn't an easy task as it required proper usage of available hardware acceleration features on the Pi.

info-beamer pi was born and commercial licenses were (and still are) sold on info-beamer.com. It was still a complex piece of software as it requires in-depth knowledge of Linux and how to properly manage a system. While that works for some, in general people asked if there was a simpler digital signage solution for the Pi.

In early 2014 development on info-beamer hosted started: A service to simplify deployment, configuration and development of a Pi based digitial signage system. Since then it's been constantly improved. Today it's the result of almost 8 years of work and experience gathered running the service. You can use this experience too. Hope you enjoy it!
