I'd picked up this LCD display for projects and experiments with the ESP32 platform. Initially, I became confused, as the back of the module clearly states SPI, yes the pins are labeled as i2c. In looking at the technical documentation for the board itself I was able to figure out the correct pinouts to the ESP32 and decided upon the TFT_ESPI library as a platform to build upon. This seemed to have better support and more dynamic than the Adafruit library.

Once connections were completed and libraries installed, a library config file is reviewed and setup, with subsequent tests done, followed by a few demos.
