What board to select for T-Display-S3-AMOLED in Arduino IDE?

What board to select for the T-Display-S3-AMOLED?

I've followed the README.md file in this repo, but there appears to be a crucial step missing in the instructions for the Arduino IDE.

Step 5 says "Select the correct settings", but there are no instructions beforehand about what board to select. The obvious choice T-Display-S3-Amoled does not show up in the list of ESP32 boards.

4. Copy everything from this repository lib folder to Arduino library folder (e.g. C:\Users\YourName\Documents\Arduino\libraries)
5 .Select the correct settings in the Tools menu as shown below.

Can someone help, please?

PS I've noticed that in this repo's board folder there is a json file for the s3 Amoled board, but it's not showing up in the Arduino IDE.

Also, the board list in PlatformIO doesn't show a line for the S3-Amoled board : https://registry.platformio.org/platforms/platformio/espressif32/boards?p=14

I found getting information on the board quite difficult. I wrote up some stuff on what worked for me. Halfway down the page. https://sites.google.com/site/3dsfinfo/lights-for-model-makers-technology-and-techniques/high-rez-microcontroller-displays - NK Guy

@3Dsf-info many thanks. In short, you say the board to select is "ESP32S3 Dev Module"

PS I loved your page. Great stuff.

PPS If you've got the money, how about this listing I just saw on Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/671111165151627/

All I can say is that it worked for me. Thanks for the kind words. I’ll pass on the droid replica, though. It was made by a certain notorious builder and isn’t screen-accurate. :) - NK Guy

Hi Lewis, Thanks for confirming that. Not sure this is the best place to give feedback, but I just want to say a big thank you for all the LilyGo products you do. They're really great and getting better all the time. Regards, Martin
