【Skill】

The program can be written normally, but it is still not displayed after writing

1. There is a factory test file in the firmware folder, which can be flashed into the board to check whether the board is normal. If there is still no display, it can be judged that there is a problem with the board or the screen.
2. Delete the <TFT_eSPI> in the library and replace it with the <TFT_eSPI> in the home folder to the library directory
3. When you open the Arduino IDE, you will be prompted to upgrade the library. Please choose not to upgrade, otherwise the configuration of the <TFT_eSPI> display will be overwritten.
