Garlic Hub runs your digital signage network from one self-hosted console, managing the players, the media library, and the playlists behind every screen without per-device fees. Build presentations as SMIL playlists: full-screen master playlists for a single message, reusable internal playlists for shared blocks like opening hours, and multizone layouts that split one display into independent areas. The visual zone editor arranges those areas by percentage or pixels, even overlapping, while the template editor produces image content without leaving the browser. Media arrives from local uploads, external links, screencasts, cameras, or stock platforms, organized in hierarchical folders with bulk actions. Date and time conditions, recurrence, and triggers from touch, key presses, or network messages decide what plays when, and nested playlists can take over by priority. Players fetch updates by polling or receive an immediate push when reachable, and the fleet view shows status at a glance with remote publish, refresh, and screenshot actions. Roles per module, OAuth2 tokens, a REST API, and webhooks let larger operations automate publishing and guard who changes what, in six interface languages.

An e-ink frame on your kitchen wall should show your calendar, not beg a cloud subscription for permission; Larapaper is the self-hosted TRMNL server that keeps those screens yours. Devices on your network announce themselves and auto-join, and the admin panel tracks each unit's battery, WiFi strength, firmware, and current screen, from the official TRMNL OG and X to SeeedStudio DIY kits, reTerminal panels, Kindle and Kobo e-readers, and Raspberry Pi displays. Content comes from wherever you like: native plugins and recipe mashups, more than a thousand catalog recipes importable from TRMNL and the community, your own Liquid or Blade markup written in the web editor, or a simple POST to the screen API from any script. Playlists rotate screens on a schedule, so the morning shows trains and weather while the afternoon shows the build board. The render pipeline draws with headless Chrome, converts through ImageMagick to each device's exact palette, and caches results so sleepy e-ink clients wake, fetch, and sleep again in seconds. Run it beside the official cloud as a proxy when you want hybrid coverage, on SQLite for a shelf box or Postgres for a fleet, with dark mode in the admin and Docker Compose for deployment.
