Keeping up with the momentum of the day, I decided to try another attempt at getting Squareline Studio (SLS for short) working with the ESP32 and my 3.5″ HX8357d driven display.
I created a new project, with the correct resolution and color depth (320×480, 16-bit) first. Then changed the background to all green and added a centered label “Testing Green Screen”. Here’s a screenshot of the settings and the project:

Compiled and programmed the board, and it was a great pleasure to see:
