**New to the concept?** A MagicMirror is a regular display placed behind a
44+
two-way mirror. The screen shines through the glass while everything else stays
45+
reflective – turning an ordinary mirror into a smart display. This documentation
46+
covers the **software** side only – for the **hardware** side (mirror, frame, mounting)
47+
things are highly individual and best explored through the

where others share their builds and setups. Have questions or ideas?
