Description: I thought about building something like this after refreshing the CDC website over and over again throughout the day... here is what I came up with, but note there's a lot here you can reuse into other projects where you might need to pull down and parse data from a website. In this case, data is pulled from the CDC covid19 page: cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-in-us.html Hardware used: ESP32 board adafruit.com/product/3405 7.5" epaper display: amazon.com/waveshare-7-5inch-HAT-Raspberry-Consumption/dp/B075R4QY3L Note that I'm using the 640x384 resolution - looks like there's a newer display with higher res, so display library may not work properly with that one.
