How to use without Balena OS

[connected-mgosbee]

Is there a way to allow WPE to work full screen without needing to install an unsupported custom OS?

@connected-mgosbee you should be able to use the docker image on a raspberry pi that runs a non-graphical OS. This is because WPE writes directly to the framebuffer so it needs full control of it. I haven't tested it myself though.

balenaOS is part of our balena platform and is definitely supported and tailored for devices running containers unattended. Did you have an issue with using balenaOS?

if you install any OS, like Raspbian without a graphical interface, it's enough to install Docker and then run something like

docker run --privileged petrosagg/balena-wpe:raspberrypi3-094d55a /usr/bin/cog https://github.com
