Set up wifi on first start

[Githamza]

I'm looking a solution to my use case.
I would like to integrate fullpageos to tablets then delivers them to users. The issue is that I don't have access to wifi credentials. User should connect the WiFi.
How can I do this ? Is it possible to configure WiFi on first run or edit WiFi later but directly on tablet ?

FullPageOS runs on rasperrypis and not tablets - so just making sure you know that.

There is no browser-ready network config that I know of.
Zynthian team implemented it for their app (that is built on CustomPiOS):
https://github.com/zynthian/zynthian-webconf/blob/testing/lib/wifi_config_handler.py

You could set it up a network manager taskbar that has the nm-applet and then use that, but it would be outside the browser

@guysoft thank you.

So if I would buy a "tablet" that when turned on, only opens a webpage, how can I do it ? is there kit of touchscreen + raspberry pi + case mounted and ready to use ?

If your purpose is to show a web page on a tablet, maybe this is not for you. Moreover, the costs are much higher for the hardware than some Chinese mid-high-end tablets (80/90€). You can use a solution like FullyKiosk Browser on Android, I use it for tablets within some B&Bs.

I think its a different solution. A tablet runs on batteries and has different connectivity than a single board computer. Indeed I am not sure what you are trying to do, it might be better using a raspberrypi and it might not. I think if you want a user to hold them, charge them etc, then FullPageOS might not be the way to go.

I am converting this to a discussion since its not an issue.
