and si7020 temperature and humidity sensor. can any one tell me how I can increase the font size of the sensor readings ?

The SSD1306 driver inherits from FrameBuffer, which means that arbitrary fonts may be rendered using the Writer class in font-to-py.

There is also a nano-gui which works with these displays.
