# pi_kiosk

Turns a Pi with a monitor attached into a full-screen Firefox kiosk display, with no
window manager: an autologin console user runs `startx`, whose `.xinitrc` launches
Firefox in `--kiosk` mode pointed at `pi_kiosk_url` and relaunches it if it ever exits.
If X itself crashes, `.bash_profile` restarts it.

Vars:

- `pi_kiosk_user` (default `kiosk`) - the account that autologs into tty1.
- `pi_kiosk_url` (default `http://localhost:8080`) - what Firefox shows.

Meant to run alongside `pi_musicmouse` on the same host when it's serving the page
locally (the default `pi_kiosk_url`), gated in `mediapis.yml` by `mediapi_has_monitor`.

niri was considered instead of plain X/no-WM, but isn't packaged for Debian Bookworm
yet (no official apt package, only third-party `.deb`s or a from-source Rust build) -
revisit once it is.
