It's your frame.
Bring it to life.
Control your Pixoo in ways the manufacturer's app just won't allow. Comes out of the box with several 'live frames' such as flip notes, weather, stocks, photo albums, Spotify "now playing" status — streamed from a browser on your machine.
(01) · What it is
A local control center for your quirky little display.
Pixopen is a browser studio that talks to a 64×64 LED frame on your network. It stores projects on disk, keeps secrets off the internet, and pushes live pictures so the display actually does something.
Discover a frame on the LAN, or type an address. Preview in the studio. Then run a live app — or deploy a still, a slideshow, a drawing, a GIF.
No account. No cloud product. An open project you can run, fork, and enjoy.

(03) · How it works
Three beats. Then the room lights up.
02 · On the network
Connect the Pixoo
Pixopen looks for it on your network and sends the frames. No extra hardware, no account.
03 · Run or send
Run it or send it
Run keeps a live app going. Deploy drops a still or GIF on the device until you change it.
(04) · Get started
Clone it. Run it. Frame it.
Pixopen is built for 64×64 Pixoo-class displays. Your browser and the Pixoo talk directly on your local network, so it never needs the cloud. The internet only comes in if a live frame needs data you actually turned on.
