From the maker
I built a watchface inspired by Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon". A prism that refracts light into a rainbow to show the time. The minute hand is a light ray, the rainbow points at the hour. It's written in Zig, which lets me target the browser (WASM), a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W driving a 13.3" e-ink display as a wall clock, a Pico 2 for bare-metal battery operation, and eventually the Pebble Round 2 smartwatch.
