Installing GUIslice on ESP8266

Calvin Hass edited this page Nov 2, 2017 · 8 revisions

In general, running GUIslice on an ESP8266 / NodeMCU can be done in the same way as for Installing GUIslice on Arduino with a couple exceptions:

  • Recommended to use TFT_eSPI (instead of Adafruit-GFX) for greatly improved performance. This can be enabled with GSLC_DRV_TFT_ESPI.
  • RAM constraints are less of a problem on the ESP8266 versus other Arduino devices. Therefore, the simpler /arduino examples can generally be used (instead of using the Flash-optimized /arduino_min examples). Note that there appears to be some issues with using the arduino_min examples on ESP8266.
