+# dependencies
+- needs the keyb.py in lib
+- needs settings.toml in root, containing ssids and passwords according to the wifi_options list + containing tumblr access codes for future
+
+# features
+- uses wifi switcher on boot
+- basic home menu for sd, tumblr (empty), web server (empty)
+- view file list on sd card, can open text files (probably crashes on anything else)
+- displays own ip address in header
+
