Google Calendar on your Yocto-Display-ePaper-C

Twelve years ago, we built a DIY project that displayed upcoming events from a Google Calendar on a Yocto-MaxiDisplay that was built into a kitchen cabinet. This week, we're going to update this setup so that it uses our new Yocto-Display-ePaper-C module and shows the events on an ePaper display. We'll also take this opportunity to simplify the code and get rid of the OAuth2 authentication system.

A Yoctopuce time clock

A while back, the Commission de l'inspection paritaire des entreprises (Joint Labor Inspection Commission) for the Canton of Geneva issued us a formal notice requiring us to implement a system for tracking work hours for all staff. Until now, Yoctopuce had operated on a trust-based system, and that had never caused the slightest problem. But hey, the law is the law, so we had no choice but to comply :( So, since we had to track work hours anyway, we figured we might as well do it the Yoctopuce way :)
