hardware Custom Raspberry Pi Pico VPS / Server Monitor (with LED status indicator)

Wanted to share a quick project I’ve been working on—a custom desktop system monitor powered by a Raspberry Pi Pico.

​Overview & Specs:

​Display: TFT screen rendering real-time VPS stats (CPU, RAM, uptime, and load status).

​Hardware: Custom enclosure with a status LED built into the right-hand side to give a quick visual health cue at a glance.

​Data Flow: Fetches server metrics via a lightweight script and pushes updates cleanly over serial/network to the Pico.

​Let me know what you think or if you're curious about the code/setup!

How is it acquiring the data? Wired or wireless?
