Does the software support small (or any) displays? What would you want it to display? System stats (IP, temp)? Nodes linked to? There is no 'who's transmitting' info to display...
After IP, temp, and up time I'm not sure what else is important/useful to display...

I was wondering if anyone has used a small lcd display for there Shari node.? Maybe in a 3d printed case?
Such a display could essentially show the same info that is available in Supermon, Allmon, or lsnode. If it were a nextion it would be possible to also enable simple commands like link and unlink. ?
I have such an interface on my mmdvm hotspot, it’s not that useful. Mostly a novelty. ?I only use it to power cycle the node.?
Honestly if you’re somewhere where you can stare at your node, you can just have a cheap tablet or old smartphone with a browser available to just access Supermon/Allmon/Allscan/etc.?

I like small displays on pi-star hotspots (0.96") so I can confirm it's on, running normally, internet connected, and what the ip address is. This is most important on a hotspot I may move between locations.

Dennis,
It's not my idea, I just fleshed out what Jeff mentioned.
There is no 'contact info' to share, since there are no DMR IDs nor a database to query, so all it could really display is SHARI status info.
This does not, to the best of my knowledge, exist - I'm just discussing possibilities.
