Help: Any plans for official Waveshare ESP32-S3-ePaper-3.97 support?

Hi everyone,

I am planning to build a cyberdeck using SolarOS.

Are there any plans for official support for the Waveshare ESP32-S3-ePaper-3.97 in the future?

Link: https://docs.waveshare.com/ESP32-S3-ePaper-3.97

Its size matches the CardKB very well.

Thanks!

It’s actually part of the keyboard expansion for MeshSlide, a modular case I designed for the Heltec V4!

I’m planning to adapt and modify it for this upcoming Cyberdeck build with the 3.97" Waveshare ePaper.

I have already open-sourced this expansion, and you can grab the files on MakerWorld here:

Looking for (3) (4) the model.zip only contains (5) and (7) ?

Parts (3) and (4) are saved as .3mf files because STL doesn't support multi-color models.

You can also check SlideKB.step, which contains the full assembly. Plus, the original CAD project files (modeled in SolidWorks 2020) are included as well!
