Driver for touch screen on M5Stack Core2 #25

Closed kasperl closed 2 years ago

kasperl commented 2 years ago

Porting existing drivers to Toit is a great place to start contributing to the Toit community. The M5Stack Core2 is a fantastic device. It comes with MIT licensed support for the touch support for the screen, but that support isn't yet available for Toit users:

https://github.com/m5stack/M5Core2/blob/master/src/M5Touch.h

It appears to be based on the FocalTech FT6336 chip and it uses I2C to communicate. It would be great to have a Toit package that makes the functionality available to all Toit users.

Here is the source code of another driver package that is useful on the M5Core and here is brief explanation on how to start writing an I2C driver in Toit.

Happy hacking!
