Update to LVGL 9.0.0 (#47)
- Updated LVGL from 8.3 to 9.0 (removed example/docs/demo folders)
- Updated esp_lvgl_port  to current status of the `lvgl9` branch on `esp-bsp`: https://github.com/espressif/esp-bsp/tree/lvgl9
- Updated all boards and drivers
- Removed `libs/lv_drivers` subproject as SDL is now supported by LVGL directly (although keyboard input seems broken)
- Updated `libs/lv_screenshot`
- Fixed the way `tt_statusbar` widget works due to behaviour change in LVGL
- Updated other lvgl code

TODOs

  • Update view_port to use ViewPort as handle externally and ViewPortData internally
  • Create more unit tests for tactility-core and tactility (PC-only for now)
  • Have a way to deinit LVGL drivers that are created from HardwareConfig
  • Show a warning screen if firmware encryption or secure boot are off when saving WiFi credentials.
  • Show a warning screen when a user plugs in the SD card on a device that only supports mounting at boot.
  • Try out Waveshare S3 120MHz mode for PSRAM (see "enabling 120M PSRAM is necessary" in docs)
  • T-Deck has random sdcard SPI crashes due to sharing bus with screen SPI: make it use the LVGL lock for sdcard operations?
  • Wi-Fi connect app should show info about connection result
  • Check service/app id on registration to see if it is a duplicate id
  • Fix screenshot app on ESP32: it currently blocks when allocating memory
  • Localisation of texts
  • Portrait support for GPIO app
  • App lifecycle docs mention on_create/on_destroy but app lifecycle is on_start/on_stop
  • Explore LVGL9's FreeRTOS functionality
  • Explore LVGL9's ILI93414 driver for 2.4" Yellow Board

Core Ideas

  • Make a HAL? It would mainly be there to support PC development. It's a lot of effort for supporting what's effectively a dev-only feature.
  • Support for displays with different DPI. Consider the layer-based system like on Android.
  • If present, use LED to show boot status
  • 2 wire speaker support
  • tt_app_start() and similar functions as proxies for Loader app start/stop/etc.
  • tt_app_set_result() for apps that need to return data to other apps (e.g. file selection)
  • Introduce co-routines for calling wifi/lvgl/etc functionality.

App Improvement Ideas

  • Sort desktop apps by name.
  • Light/dark mode selection in Display settings app.
