Hi everyone,
I have had issues getting started on these boards too, the lilygo examples are too complex for me to understand, and documentation is lacking. So my goal is to show some simpler examples on github.
You can check out my successes here:

I'm pretty new to these boards myself, and far from a software engineer. I hope this is helpful.
