ESP32-Cheap-Yellow-Display with ESPHome

This is a basic YAML configuration to get the ESP32-2432S028R display working with ESPHome. It creates two rectangles that act as binary touch sensors in Home Assistant, and includes a built-in web interface.

Setup Instructions

1. Create a New Device: Start by creating a new ESPHome device named "lcd-demo" without any extra configuration.

   

2. Edit the Device: Open the device and paste the code from the lcd-demo.yaml file. Ensure you update the Wi-Fi and OTA passwords to allow for over-the-air updates later.

   

3. Install the Firmware: Upload the firmware via USB from your local machine.

   Important: To successfully build the configuration, create a folder named fonts in your ESPHome directory, and copy the file fonts/Arimo-Regular.ttf into it.

   

4. Check the Web Interface: After installation, check the status of the device using the web UI by clicking the "Visit" button.
