The time brick is a minimalist device designed to help users focus on the essentials of time and weather amidst the distractions of modern technology and push notifications.
It features a simple OLED display, no buttons, and is powered by an ESP-01 module housed in a LEGO-like enclosure, receiving information over Wi-Fi to show time, date, weather, and surreal quotes.
Additional features include weather animations, a 'night mode' for low-light conditions, and robust error handling without crashes.
The project's code is available on GitHub, showcasing the importance of simplicity and focus in design rather than unnecessary complexity.
