Open-source firmware, documentation and build guides for Elecrow development hardware
This repository collects complete, buildable open-source projects for Elecrow's development boards and HMI displays — including the CrowPanel ESP32 HMI series, the CrowPanel e-paper displays, the RC070S touch monitor and the Pico W5 RP2040 board.
Every project folder is a standalone, production-ready project: firmware sources, dependency configuration, wiring/display setup, and a step-by-step README so you can clone, open and build without hunting for missing files.
