IT is a ESP-IDF project that interfaces the ILI9486 display(380x480). The display had 8-bit parallel interface with additionand 5 helper pins. It uses LVGL library for creating extraordinary graphics. The TFT library used in this project is modified version of github repository available here for ILI9486 and many other LCD displays with different interface scemes.
The features of this LCD project includes:
- ILI9486 8-bit parallel display(320x480) interface
- LVGLv8.3 for graphics (docs)
- Supports ESP32 and ESP32S3 as micontroller
ESP32S3 is untested for now

TODO
It is required to look at the pins and their functionalities in datasheet for specific microcontrollers used as not all the pins can be used; for example, some are used as input only, some are used for SPI flash. Assiging those pins for LCD interface cause problems.
