Overview
ESP32_Display_Panel is an Arduino library designed for the ESP series SoCs, aimed at driving display panels and facilitating rapid GUI development. Users can develop applications directly for various supported development boards or create custom boards through simple adaptations. Additionally, ESP32_Display_Panel is compatible with various LCD and touch drivers, allowing users to develop with independent drivers as needed.
