lvgl VS flipper

So here is the thing: The iPod Nano 7g is from 2012. I've seen many people designing custom PCBs and releasing Kickstarter projects for custom audio players[5] or game handhelds[6]. I know Rockbox (which is great, but its lacks support for Wifi and Bluetooth AFAIK and just does not compete with the UX of iPod's audio book features in my opinion) and iPod Linux. 10 years ago someone even reverse engineered the iPod Nano 6g display[3].

Although I'm not skilled enough in PCB-Design, after some research I found the Lilygo T-Display S3 Pro[4] based on ESP32 S3, which would be the size, but lacks audio and OS. There is also the Mango PI CyberPad[7], which looked interesting, but maybe is already too clunky.

Programming wise, LVGL[8] may be a good framework to develop a modern and efficient UI - at least it looks promising.

So, why is nobody interested in recreating an iPod nano like device? It should be doable with modern tech, but Phones have completely taken over the marked...

LVGL is a graphics library used mostly for embedded UI's. Main website: https://lvgl.io/

Popular embedded UI library

If you need something written in C and very tiny, I recommend LVGL https://lvgl.io/

The factory code uses the Lvgl graphic library. https://github.com/lvgl/lvgl

I'm trying to interface SPI LCD (ILI943) with Zynq 7020 (PYNQ-Z2 board) and LVGL embedded UI libary. And considering between two approaches:

Definitely switch to VS Code! I personally don't use the built in VS Code debugger, but check out Flipper as another option. It's got a lot of great tools and plugins for debugging. The Layout Inspector will be what you are looking for if you want to inspect the styling specifically.

I use Flipper with its Layout Inspector plugin

Also no folder show on sources filesystem (in Hermes Debugger) as described here: https://github.com/facebook/flipper/issues/4530

Very useful and beautiful and simply , my suggestion is to use this Flipper

You may also want to look into custom Flipper plugins to instrument your app.

Some development tools for the web are similar (Chrome debugger, mostly) to those for React Native, but other aspects are very different (working with the metro bundler, using Flipper, AsyncStorage debugging, more). Some techniques developers will use are the same (breakpoints and console logging), but others are different (knowing when to restart the packager vs reinstall the app on device).

from the GitHub, and has existed under the name flipper since mid 2018

It's not possible to use a browser to debug a JSI app, use Flipper (for android Flipper also has SQLite Database explorer).

Try to debug it with adb logcat or Android Studio or Flipper you'll find the error why is crashing :)
