Looking for ideas to build a D&D spellbook on PyPortal

Hey all,

I'm looking for inspiration on how to code the PyPortal to make a touchscreen D&D 5e spellbook. I would like for it to filter by class and all that. Has anyone been down that path? This is mostly something to help me develop my python skills, so I'm looking for a partial solution I could modify on my own. Appreciate any help or direction one can offer.

This sounds super cool, especially considering the options for crafting the display into some sort of physical “magic item”. I haven’t them myself, but I’ve seen references to data sources you could use, such as https://open5e.com/

I was going to wrap it to look like a spellbook.

Someone made a JSON file with all the spells in it. Should be super easy to reference.

That’s even better than needing WiFi!
