ESP32-S3 with 4.3 display (ESP32-8048S043)
Some of the contents of the sdkconfig.defaults come from the documentation by Espressif some by peeking at the Arduino_GFX library, used in the example code.

ESP32-S3 with 4.3 display
According to the supplied source code, the default installed software is using Arduino_GFX and is using 20 GPIOs for a parallel interface (DE, Vsync, Hsync, PCLK and 5:6:5 rgb).

ESP8266 with Waveshare 1.2inch SPI LCD
I'm using the above combo with the Arduino GFX library . https://github.com/moononournation/Arduino_GFX Got it to work ok - no problems until I reboot the esp. The ESP won't boot up until I remove either the power or gnd from the lcd. I know that some esp pins can't be high/low durin boot up or boot will fail - but is there some way of over coming this issue? I don't want to keep disconnecting power upon reboot or skecth upload.

How do I start out with displays?
Bodmer's TFT_eSPI is a graphics library for drawing to various displays, like the ILI9341, which is supported. It can be used with the Arduino IDE to program a Pico to interface with an ILI9341 using SPI, 8 bit parallel or 16 bit parallel interfaces.

Connecting ESP32 with TFT Display
For example, the electropeak link you posted showed a TFT LCD with the ILI9341 chip, and if you are using the TFT_eSPI library, this file needs to be configured https://github.com/Bodmer/TFT_eSPI/blob/master/User_Setup.h , the default configuration looks correct in this case.

For this TFT Display, can I buy a breakout board online or would I need to make one myself?
I was under the impression that since this display uses a ST7789V, I'd be able to use the TFT_eSPI library which has support for this controller with ESP32 board. Is that a correct assumption on my part?
