Making the Diary of Tom Riddle for the reMarkable Paper Pro

Article excerpt

Maxime Rivest has created a project similar to the Harry Potter diary of Tom Riddle, using the reMarkable Paper Pro tablet. Write on the page with your pen. After a pause, the diary drinks your ink, your words fade into the paper, the page thinks for a moment, and an answer writes itself back in a flowing hand, stroke by stroke, then fades away. No screen glow, no keyboard, no chat UI. Just ink appearing on paper. The diary’s replies come from a vision LLM that reads your handwriting from the committed page (sent as an inline PNG).
