Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

G'day All To help me through this winter I bought a 5 in touch screen with ESP32-S3-WROOM chip attached. Using available documentation, I have managed to get HELLO WORLD running and that is as far as it goes. Where is the documentation that lets me draw on the 5 in screen? Up to now I have used the PIC32MX470F with a 7 in screen so this is all a bit new to me. I should also point out that I am 88.5 and sinking fast so please be gentle. Peter.

Hello Peter, to support the ESP32 board, I can recommend the Annex Rapid Development System (Annex RDS). With it, you can quickly program your board in Basic, and many screens are also supported. You will also be able to meet a helpful fellow countryman there. The ESP32 isnt Supported by MMBasic as far as this is concerned
