I'm about to start a little bit of this, actually. Probably going to use Thonny and Micropython. You?

Hi, Heisenberg.

anyone on here do any arduino programing.. specificall.. my ESP32 board with a tft display. I cant get text to appear on the screen.

I've done it before but I ran into trouble making the display work :)

There are a lot of ESP32 variants and a lot of display variants, from what I remember it was "just" a case of finding the correct model to match my ESP32 and the correct library and configuration to match my exact display. There was a lot of trial and error involved for me but eventually I found a combination that worked.

I assume you're using the Arduino IDE for this?
