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.
This note will be visible when the device is sleeping and when powered down, in the full-screen view.
The source code and the release is available here:
https://github.com/onatbas/nickelnote
Made using NickelHook. Big thanks to geek1011 and shermp for their patience, assistance and tools.
Usage:
Further Work:
Pull requests are welcome, Styled widget can definitely be better.

Usage:
- under .adds/nickelnote, content.template is an html-like document is used for the content.
- style.template is used for styling in qss style format.
- The mod can be turned on/off by changing the name of content.template file. Missing file will stop rendering the note.
- default styles of the sleep view will apply to the note amongst different devices.
Further Work:
Pull requests are welcome, Styled widget can definitely be better.
- Better QSS support.
- Alignment/Positioning options.
- More device testing. (So far I've been testing with my Clara 2E)
