      Hi
      Maybe Ubuntu kiosk mode is good for your use case ?
      read here

      or something similar.

        Hi,

        IIRC, you have to create a startup script for whatever distribution you run on your RPi that will start your application.

            eglfs is one way to talk with you graphic hardware.

            Your desktop is shown through a Window Manager which is usually dependent on your desktop environment.

            You can't have both running at the same time.
