[request] Adding pollen count (or other external webpage info) to Homepage (alien.top)

Hey gang, I'd like to grab the pollen count (for example) from a website and show it in Homepage as its own widget.

I can have a little python script grab the information without too much trouble. Any ideas how to pass that to Homepage?

Why not post this as a feature request on the Homepage Github?

https://github.com/gethomepage/homepage/discussions

Or try to make use of the Custom API option that Homepage has, if you have trouble with that you can also ask on the Github.
