Seems like: in order to run wifi, one need tft screen in LVGL UI mode. The only supported tft screen is TS35, which requires SPI flash to run in LVGL mode, which is missing So.. is wifi (mks cura plugin) impossible on monster8?

I would also like to make the WIFI module work on the monster board. I thought about the possibility of connecting a TFT display that has support for the WIFI module on the Monster, but unfortunately the board does not have the AUX1 connector, only the EXP1 and EXP2 connectors. Is it possible to make a TFT touch display work on the Monster?
