Arduino Development

Hello Experts,

Is there any possibility to make a widget from any website, that refreshes constantly, as in a stock trading, and run it via arduino? To be specific, im thinking to create a smart monitor that is powered by arduino to show the stock market updates in real time.

Welcome to the forum

It sounds like you are looking to run a Web browser on an Arduino that connects to a Web site and displays data from it.

Is that correct ?

Most websites that give this sort of data have a delay associated with the prices they provide. Those that do not are often behind a pay wall.

Yahoo had a simple "finance" site where you could easily scrape (right-click >> view page source) a page of values and graphs with a 15 minutes delay. Wunderground has live weather. Same with live motorway cameras or events. Pre-2000 I scraped Tour de France web pages and created an all-in-one "widget" of elevation profile, map, current locations, and live cameras that let me "view" the tour live, free (then I sent my js/html to ASO, that they may have adopted).
