Inkplate Library 11.0.0!

The new and improved Inkplate library is finally here!

After months of development, we’re excited to introduce a major update to the Inkplate Arduino library. This release focuses on improving structure, performance, and overall usability, along with fixing issues reported by the community.

Here’s a quick overview of what’s new:

• Complete library refactor
  Most of the codebase has been rewritten. While the previous version was functional, adding new features was difficult due to a scattered structure. The library now has a cleaner, more organized architecture that’s easier to work with and extend.

• Transition to a more object-oriented design
  Core components such as the RTC, GPIO expanders, and image decoder are now implemented as distinct objects within the Inkplate class, making the codebase more modular and maintainable.

• Updated board definitions
  Inkplate board definitions have been upgraded to Arduino ESP32-IDF v5.5. You can find them here:
  https://github.com/SolderedElectronics/Inkplate-Board-Definitions-for-Arduino-IDE

• Improved dithering algorithm
  Enhanced image processing with fixes for issues previously seen when dithering JPG images.

• Multiple dithering kernels
  Added support for several kernels for both grayscale and color displays, including:
  Floyd-Steinberg, Jarvis-Judice-Ninke, Burkes, Stucki, Sierra Lite, and a Reduced Diffusion kernel for more vibrant color output.

• Support for upcoming Inkplate 13SPECTRA
  Includes drivers for the new Inkplate 13SPECTRA board.

• Stability fix for Inkplate 2
  Resolved an issue that caused the device to become unresponsive after extended use.

• Custom HTTPS port support
  Added the ability to configure a custom HTTPS port for the Network Controller.

• Various additional improvements and fixes
  Along with many smaller enhancements we may have missed here.

We hope you enjoy the update! Due to the shift to a more object-oriented structure, some existing code may require adjustments. We recommend checking out the documentation for detailed guidance on the new implementation:

Thank you for your continued support, and happy making!

• Partial update examples have gotten an update as well

Full Changelog: 10.2.1...10.2.2

Inkplate library 10.2.1!

Hi! This is a quick update with some cool examples, for all Inkplates we now have:

• OpenAI text prompt (with a snarky weather report in text)
• OpenAI image generation (and show on Inkplate)

We really enjoyed these so we thought it's best to share them with you ASAP :)

Enjoy!

Inkplate Library 10.2.0!

A pretty big update for the Inkplate library!

We've added some great examples:

Image uploader example
Google Calendar example Fix
OpenMeteo station example
We've added a function for making a textBox, so you can print text inside a box simply. Also there are many under-the-hood improvements in the library!

This version of the library (10.2.0) was released mistakenly on the wrong commit, so this version is the one with the correct one.

Full Changelog: 10.1.0...10.2.0

Updated WiFi examples

• Added ConnectWiFi function to easily connect to WiFi and added this function to examples
• Updated README and image .h files with links to Soldered Image Converter
