still active? #188

Closed Pedritoprint closed 10 months ago

Pedritoprint commented 1 year ago

Since about 3 days i'm interested about the "tinyGS" and saw in Issue #113 that in June 2021, "lotdocker" ask for a solution for M5Stack and in the description of the project i can read that other Boards will be impelemented, but since a long time, nothing is changed nor issues answered. Is this project still active? Also no update since last year in github. I have still one Basic M5Stack with LoRa Modul 433 here to use and to become acquaninted. An other one is uese for APRS-Cube and is working well. How can i implement the display library of M5Stack in this project to see text on display? Greetings and merry xmas and hny, HB9CMI

Hello,

Since the display on the M5Stack is a completelly different technologies compared to the one used in most boards, it would require different control software and libraries and since program memory is limited and we want a single file for all the boards it's a feature with some complexity that has low priority and nobody has worked on it as far as I know. The module can still be used with the display off but if someone works on a implementation that doesn't compromise other features of the project it will be welcome for sure as a pull request!

Regarding the lora modules most of them are now supported through templates. On the beta branch there is even support for different families of modules through this same method.

Merry Christmas and happy new year.
