Hello everyone,
Allow me to share
NickelNote, a mod to show some notes on the cover view of your Kobo reader.
NickelNote will let you put a customized note on the front page to add a bit of personalization to your kobo. Add personal touches like kind words for gifts or contact numbers for forgetful moments.
This note will be visible in the full-screen view when the device is sleeping and powered down.
The source code and the release is available

Made using NickelHook. Big thanks to geek1011 and shermp for their patience, assistance, and tools.
Usage:
- Place a text file under .adds/nickelnote named content.template. This html-like document is used for the content of the note.
Example:
Code:
<span>John Doe</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 32px">If found, Please return at</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 32px;">+1 613 987 65 43</span>
- style.template is used for styling in QSS style format. QLabel is your main element.
- The mod can be turned on/off by changing the content and template file names. The missing file will stop rendering the note.
- v0.0.3: a pin.template file will overwrite the “Forgot Pin?” text.
- default styles of the sleep view will apply to the note among different devices.
Future Work:
Pull requests are welcome.
- Better QSS support.
- Alignment/Positioning options.
- More device testing. (Currently tested on Aura Edition 2, Clara 2E)
- Templating options for internal device data and widgets.
