Hi all!

I stumbled on to the CYD by sheer dumb luck, and I'm glad I did! this community seems to be alive and kicking

So... I'm very VERY green to this whole world of CYD, platformIO, etc but very keen on getting familiar with it.
I can navigate VS code just enough to modify 3d printer setting for marlin. that's the extent of my knowledge

I'm trying to make a project, a simple project using the CYD to do the task of a Rotary encoder, so basically digitizing the analogue encoder.

All I'm looking to do is have a splash screen, (possibly a cool animated one) when the ESP starts up then on to 6 buttons that will mimic the encoder position.

my question is, is this something that would be possible with just the CYD or will I need more GPIOs?

cheers

Robzz

Look at the examples and then work from there, you don't need any additional GPIO to test unless you are using sensors or controllers or something like that
