# Hello World Display "Hello World!" on Soldered Inkplate 5 using LVGL. ## Overview Demonstrates the most basic usage of the Inkplate 5 with LVGL by initializing the display and rendering a "Hello World!" label on the e-paper screen using the LVGL graphics library. ## Hardware Required - Soldered Inkplate 5 - USB cable ## Setup Run `idf.py menuconfig` and navigate to: **Inkplate Boards → Inkplate5** ## Build and Flash ``` idf.py build idf.py -p PORT flash monitor ``` ## Expected Output The text "Hello World!" centered on the Inkplate 5 screen. ## Notes - `lv_refr_now()` renders the LVGL scene into the framebuffer. - `display.display()` must be called to update the physical e-paper panel. ## Resources - Docs: https://docs.soldered.com/inkplate - Support: https://forum.soldered.com/ - Image tool: https://tools.soldered.com/tools/image-converter/
