Motivated by Jason's issue to get round to getting an Ai to write a bespoke backup script, what files would you add to get back up and running on this list? Thnx

settings.json and security.json - or just: all but node_modules in .signalk tar -cvf signalk_archive.tar --exclude='~/.signalk/node_modules' '~/.signalk'

A few moments from gemini in vscode 😊 Much of the motivation for this actually came from James Clear "atomic Habits", quantity is far more important than quality, want to get better at something then putting the hours in helps far more than trying to come up with something really sleek, so I'll sip coffee & watch gemini come up with code 😂

sorry, I don't understand what this does... and how it is different from the server's backup feature

Anyone ever play simcity back in the day? Vscode with Ai writing is like that, over morning coffee ask it to build a bit more 😊 Got side tracked from the backup but this is very handy, little USB fun cube dongle HF radio receiver plugged in and get weatherfaxes auto saved as sound files for decoding later, really handy offshore solo. Little a Pi5 can't do 😎

And a basic system info, so what else sigk (or anything) related could go in here? Any use to anyone? Will get round to saving to github at some point. The world is different now!! You don't hunt around the web for a program to do some little tasks, often just get an Ai to write one 😂

This is worse than sim city!! 😁 Bit addictive.. Anyway, wondering now if it's worth investigating getting something like this as a sigK app, assuming it could talk and get files to/from a remote machine. This bit of Ai python gets navobj.db from local laptop & Pi running openplotter, lets you edit entries & save to the database, next in line would be a rightclick "send to the other database" . Maybe a "compare & list differences between the 2 DBs. Such fun 😁

create a resource provider that makes O waypoints etc available within SK, so that one can use them in Freeboard?
