Is there any way to port this to the Waveshare 9.7 e ink display?

picnoir commented 5 years ago

You probably could to that by writing the appropriate screen driving operations in screen.c.

I don't own this screen, I don't plan to do that in a near future. That said, I will gladly accept a PR :)

Ok will do, thanks!

If you have any handy tips on debugging for the screen let me know :)

Abandon all hope and be really patient is the best advice I could give I guess ><

The starting point will probably be to understand the code provided by the manufacturer and find the appropriate datasheet.

I guess owning a logic analyzer could make your life a bit easier. That said, owning one is far from mandatory; as a matter of fact I don't.
