So. Honestly, I’m in over my head on a couple projects that I thought were going to be “easy enough.”
I’m new to the entire “type” of project I’m building - ESP32’s with displays. The starter project is a ‘magic 8 ball.’ I have one of these already and figure the gyro/accelerometer can capture the shake/flip motion. The more complex one is intended to be backed by ESPHome and use a motion sensor/Bluetooth presence detection to deliver customized messages in addition to providing smart home control.
In the course of trying to figure them out, it’s become apparent I’m going to have to learn/use LVGL for the graphics. I haven’t yet gotten to LVGL and I already am on the struggle bus.

Hmm that sounds interesting.
I’d say to message me on discord and we can talk about it more but I don’t think Lemmy supports DMS? Or maybe it’s just my app.
Either way I don’t really want to dox myself on this account so idk haha.
