# home_splash — "ta-da!" preset. Minimal, animated, lots of whitespace. The job is to
# feel like a title screen: a big animated hero with a greeting underneath, then a large
# clock and date. Every widget works without any user configuration — splashboard
# install → home_splash renders a filled splash on first run. For a daily dashboard
# with moon / season / calendar / time-elapsed gauges pick `home_daily` instead; for
# weather or sunrise drop a `weather` / `clock_sunrise` block into your own config
# with latitude + longitude.

# `matrix_rain`. For the boot-log reveal swap the whole spec to
# `{ type = "animated_boot", inner = "text_ascii", duration_ms = 1800, style = "figlet", font = "ansi_shadow", color = "panel_title", align = "center" }`.
# For the figlet-font morph swap to
# `{ type = "animated_figlet_morph", duration_ms = 1800, color = "panel_title", align = "center" }`.

# fit — no wasted vertical space either way.
