Hi all - I’ve been building LCD Wizard, a visual LVGL designer that runs in the browser, and I’d value this forum’s feedback more than anyone’s.
The part I think is different: it doesn’t stop at the UI files. You pick the board (the Cheap Yellow Display, WT32-SC01 Plus, T-Display-S3, Sunton RGB panels, STM32 and Pico builds, or your own wiring), and the export is a whole project - the sketch, the TFT_eSPI / LovyanGFX / Arduino_GFX config, lv_conf.h with only the widgets and Montserrat sizes you use switched on, and platformio.ini. It targets LVGL 9 and 8 from the same design.
Other things that might interest people here:
- Sensors and variables: bind a BME280 reading to a label through a formula, and preview it with simulated values before any hardware exists.
- Resistive touch calibrates on the device and says on screen whether it worked; capacitive controllers are reset and checked at every boot.
- Fonts are converted with lv_font_conv (seven-segment faces, Montserrat Bold, or import a free font), and icons are glyphs in a generated font, so they follow a button’s pressed and checked text colour.
Every board preset has a public pinout page, which may be useful even if you never touch the designer: LVGL board presets and pinouts - ESP32, STM32, RP2040 - LCD Wizard
The designer is at https://lcdwizard.com - it opens without an account. I’d especially like to hear where the generated code does something you’d do differently.
