Hey everyone,
I want to create a small LCD screen that shows when the next bus will arrive at my nearest station, as well as a few other details. I’ve already managed to connect to the API and retrieve the data, but now I need guidance on how to actually display it on a screen.
I’m looking for advice on:
- What equipment I should buy?
- What programming language is best suited for this kind of project. I am very proficient with python, and familiar with C/C++/Java.
- Any tips or resources to help with setting everything up.
I’m fairly new to hardware projects like this, but I do have experience with programming.
I dag on Youtube a little bit and see that people use these ESP32. But I have no experience in micro-controllers and similar electronic things.
I’d love to hear your recommendations or experiences with similar projects. Thanks in advance!
