Your first CircuitPython display gadget

For the quickest connected dashboard, choose PyPortal; for a sensor-rich offline display, choose CLUE; for a compact Wi-Fi/Bluetooth project you will package yourself, choose Feather ESP32-S3 TFT. Install the board-specific CircuitPython build, copy only compatible libraries, render a static screen first, and add networking after the local loop is stable.
