Show HN: Apple Watch Custom Complications – for programmers and automation geeks

[finalfrontier]

Create simple text-based Apple Watch complications that are based on/refreshed from a JSON that you can host yourself.

This is something that I always needed but have not been able to find elsewhere - so I created it myself.

Feel free to share what you think about it, including ideas for improvements!

Curious what primary use case you had in mind?

[finalfrontier]

There are many. I personally like to see all kinds of information on my wrist.

For personal use it can be weather, current sea state (for surfing, sailing, ...), current interval for your favorite bus - anything you check online and would like to get on your wrist which not necessarily already has an app/or there is one but you are not happy with how it presents data.

For business you can see how many helpdesk issues your team still has outstanding, how many errors your production environment logged for the last X hours, ...

Simply anything you would put on a dashboard. With that dashboard being on your wrist. And without the need to create your own Apple Watch app to achieve that.
