• Open the Raspberry Pi terminal and enter the following command to enter the configuration interface:
  

sudo raspi-config

• Select Interface Options -> SPI -> Yes to enable the SPI interface

• Continue to enter the config interface:
  

sudo raspi-config

• Select Interface Options -> I2C -> Yes to enable the I2C interface

• Restart Raspberry Pi
  

sudo reboot

• Check /boot/config.txt, you can see "dtparam=i2c_arm=on" and "dtparam=spi=on" are written
  

more  /boot/config.txt

• To ensure that SPI is not occupied, it is recommended that other driver overlays be temporarily turned off. You can use ls /dev/spi* to check the SPI occupancy. The terminal output /dev/spidev0.0 and /dev/spidev0.1 indicates that the SPI situation is normal

ls /dev/spi*

sudo ./main

• Download the Demo

• Unzip the demo and open Thonny

• Open the demo, the path is: 1.47inch_Touch_LCD_Demo_Pico/Python/1.47inch_Touch_LCD.py

• Run the demo to achieve the drawing board function on the screen

• If you want to run the demo automatically at power-on, change the file name to main.py

Download and Install Arduino IDE

• Click to visit the Arduino official website, select the corresponding system and system bit to download
  
  
• Run the installer and install all by default

Install Arduino-ESP32

• To use ESP32-related motherboards in Arduino IDE, you must first install the Arduino-ESP32 Board library
• In some areas, it may not be able to Install online due to network factors, and Install offline is generally recommended
• To install the Arduino-ESP32 tutorial, please refer to Arduino board manager tutorial

Install Library

• When installing Arduino libraries, there are usually two ways to choose from: Install online and Install offline.
  For most libraries, users can easily search and install them through the online library manager of the Arduino software. However, some open-source libraries or custom libraries are not synchronized to the Arduino Library Manager, so they cannot be acquired through online searches. In this case, users can only manually install these libraries offline.
