Since the lvgl is too dependent on the conf files, I was thinking of an approach to generate the whole conf file according to the input from the user. There will be default values but the user can change it when prompted about it during the configuration. Or the user can just choose to press enter to all the prompts and a file with default configuration will be created. BTW, I posted about an example app based on these patches here: https://lists.rtems.org/pipermail/devel/2020-June/060054.html Please have a look (especially the video ;) ) and review the app when you have time :) Best regards, Vijay > The drivers part is a quite separate and less critical one.
