I bought an inky 7 colour e-ink screen for rpi [0]. Pimoroni offers a python library that can write any image (jpg, png) to the screen.

Any rpi just fits with the gpio pins like a typically HAT. I'm using an rpi zero 2 w. Setup was less than 5 minutes.

I'm now hooking up a system that will take screenshots from a home assistant dashboard and push that to the display every 5 minutes.
