Zero Electronic Waste.
Proprietary digital wall calendars cost between £300 and £600 and force families into locked ecosystems. Perrymore is purpose-built to run on retired household tablets dating back to 2013 with modern performance and zero subscription lock-in.

Compatibility Verdict
Modern Native Support
Runs modern WebKit natively. Full support for CSS Grid, hardware acceleration, and instant ambient sleep/wake.
Recommended Kitchen Kiosk Setup
Add to Home Screen via Safari for full-screen PWA kiosk mode. Enable Guided Access in iOS Settings.
Lithium Battery Care
Plug into a cheap £8 smart plug scheduled to charge 3 hours per day (e.g. 2am–5am) to prevent battery degradation from 24/7 continuous charging.
Wall Mounting Hardware
Use two pairs of Command Picture Hanging strips (removable without wall damage) paired with a 90° right-angle charging cable for a flush, wireless look.
The Engineering Behind Ultra-Legacy WebKit
How we reconciled Next.js 15, React 19, and Server Actions with browsers that were retired a decade ago.
Synchronous Runtime Polyfills
Overcoming React 19 & Server Action Crashes
Older iOS 12–14 Safari engines lack modern JavaScript primitives including BigInt64Array, BigUint64Array, globalThis, Array.prototype.at, and Object.hasOwn. When Next.js evaluates Server Action manifests, unpatched legacy browsers crash immediately with ReferenceError: Can't find variable.
Perrymore injects synchronous zero-dependency shims in the HTML head before bundle execution, ensuring 100% stable execution without increasing modern bundle weight.
Dual-Tier CSS Layout Fallbacks
Tailwind CSS v4 & Flexbox Gap Resilience
Tailwind CSS v4 relies heavily on the :where() selector and modern Flexbox gap. On Safari < 14.1 (iOS 12–14), flex gap-* rules are ignored silently, causing calendar columns and navigation buttons to collide.
We maintain universal CSS2 sibling combinator fallbacks (.space-y-* > * + *) and strict margin definitions, ensuring pixel-perfect spacing on both an iPad Air 1 (2013) and an M4 iPad Pro (2024).
Electronic Waste Prevention
35–50 kg CO2e Saved Per Household
Manufacturing a new 15-inch proprietary kitchen display generates approximately 45 kg of CO2 equivalent emissions and consumes rare earth minerals. Millions of perfectly functioning iPads sit discarded in desk drawers simply because third-party native apps stopped updating.
By delivering a modern web application engineered specifically for legacy WebKit, Perrymore keeps hardware on the wall and out of UK landfills.
Zero-Knowledge Privacy Standard
Ambient Intelligence Without Surveillance
Commercial smart home displays frequently monetize user activity with targeted ads, third-party analytics trackers, and ambient listening microphones.
Perrymore operates with strictly zero advertising, zero cross-site tracker pixels, and full UK GDPR compliance. Your children's appointments and domestic calendar items remain strictly confidential.
