Hi everyone,
First, thank you for creating and maintaining this amazing project! It's a fantastic resource for the community, and we truly appreciate all the hard work that has gone into it.
We wanted to share that we've created a fork of this project that focuses on making it easier to assemble using Adafruit Feather boards and FeatherWing accessories. This version is designed to simplify hardware selection and wiring, making it more accessible for beginners and hobbyists.
Key Features of the Fork:
Adafruit Feather HUZZAH32: A compact and powerful ESP32-based board.
Adafruit TFT FeatherWing - 3.5" 480x320 Touchscreen: A plug-and-play display with touchscreen functionality.
Adafruit Ultimate GPS FeatherWing: For GPS functionality, with a recommendation to use an external GPS antenna for better reception.
Simplified Wiring: All components are designed to stack directly, minimizing the need for manual wiring.
Updated Documentation: Includes detailed instructions for hardware assembly, wiring, and setup.
