Use it to display your corporate marketing animation or a clock ... whatever.  Note, it is ***\u003cu\u003enot\u003c/u\u003e*** interactive - since once you move your mouse the saver will terminate - keep that in mind.\n\n## Features\n\n- A **URL**: Point to a URL.  That's it.\n\n## Configuration\n\nThe screen saver can be configured by modifying the `config.json` file. Here's an example of what you can customize:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"url\": \"https://yourcompany.yourdomain/yourmarketingslidedeck\"\n}\n```\n\n## License\n\nThis project is licensed under the MIT License. See the [LICENSE.md](LICENSE.md) file for details.  *(It would have been the Unlicence / public domain, but that carries the burden of Liability and Warranty.)*\n\n## Acknowledgment\n\nThe `v0.1` code was entirely written by ChatGPT, an AI developed by OpenAI, with guidance and project input from me. *(On a 2013 **iMac**, running **MacOS Catalina** 10.15.7 and **Xcode** 12.4.)*\n\nWhat's fascinating on this one is that it got it right on the first try, with no modifications!  The prompt I used was:\n\n```txt\nHello.  Today you're going to help me write a screen saver in MacOS.  We're using Xcode 12.4 and writing in Objective C.  We'll start by setting some initial ideations:\na) Main class will be called `EarlSaverView`\nb) The screen saver will display a web site - the URL for the website will be extracted from an app resource file called `config.json`\nc) Try to use the native `WKWebView` class\nd) Please separate prototypes and header info into a `EarlSaverView.h` file and the underling code into a `EarlSaverView.m` file\n```\n\n\n\u0026nbsp;\u003cbr\u003e\u0026nbsp;\n\n---\n\nMade with :heart: by **Silvino Rodrigues**\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsilvinor%2Fearlsaver","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fsilvinor%2Fearlsaver","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsilvinor%2Fearlsaver/lists"}
