With reference to this, just recently about some developments on _Kiosk Mode_, but now back a bit more on topic here:  
[https://forum.makecode.com/t/cabinet-with-raspberry-pi-ran-out-of-disk-space/16221/9](https://forum.makecode.com/t/cabinet-with-raspberry-pi-ran-out-of-disk-space/16221/9)

Just checked out [https://arcade.makecode.com/kiosk](https://arcade.makecode.com/kiosk), and it looks good, and seemingly multiplayer capable as well.

But how would one go about making for instance a school arcade project with student’s games on some minimum capable and low powered hardware/pad, with for instance the [shoebox controller](https://arcade.makecode.com/hardware/shoebox-controller), but not with the official shared [makecode.com](http://makecode.com) site and preloaded games or others’ uploaded games in the mix(and maybe no stable internet)?

“_The idea is that you put the RPI in kiosk mode and have it load this webpage fullscreen. This page accepts gamepad input, so you can build a cabinet using gamepads or an arcade button kit with gamepad support. You can add new games using a phone and the button in the top right._”

Is the idea only to run this official site, or also to run a local kiosk server on the device or another connected device. Is it(will it be) also a self-contained (boot)image or app that one can download? How to isolate it from the default game/other users(log in/user profiles/session cookies?)? How to configure it; the menus, artwork, school logo etc.? Does it have to be a mega Chrome-based browser, or would lighter/minimal browsers work?

I understand it is cool with many new opportunities, and enabling the use of new devices and OS’es, but then, as I almost imagined a use case “as/like an app” or a project, it eluded me… Sorry for being slow here.

Anyone have examples of it in use that they would like to share for inspiration?
