With the latest (14th March) daily build of firmware nano-gui now works on the Pi Pico. This enables the use of a range of display technologies including OLED, TFT, ePaper and Sharp. The GUI supports various widgets and a plot module.

It does not support touch.

Looks great!

I am new to Pico and am using Thonny.
Is there a guide that helps me know how to install the nano-gui package? I can't simply find it using the Search PyPi method.

I'd like try it out with my TFT 128x128 color SPI display.

Thanks.

It isn't on PyPi. PyPi isn't much help for targets with no network interface.

Installation is done by cloning the repo to your PC and copying files to the filesystem, preserving the directory structure. Instructions may be found here.
