# Today's Paper — server docs

Today's Paper is the server that renders a per-device "screen" — a calendar, a weather forecast, a
school lunch menu, comics — to an image and serves it to a battery-powered e-paper photo frame. This
is the documentation for that server, `todays_paper_web`.

Most of these pages are about **designing screens**: the config format, the Jinja/XML templating
pipeline, and the full reference for every widget (view) and data source available to a template.
There's also a short section on installing and running the server itself, and an auto-generated
reference of the Python API for anyone extending it with a new widget or data source.
