The LVGL Editor Dropped, But I'm Not Sweating It

The author of the most popular graphics library for electronics, LVGL, announced his own editor: https://youtu.be/ntAuLhuK3Ck

TL;DR: in the video he shows how you’ll be able to quickly and conveniently build LVGL interfaces using Lopaka (not yet) XML markup that gets converted to C code.

I’ve been waiting for this release for a while, thought it would be the killer of our editor. Turns out it’s just another abstraction layer for engineers.

He also offers a Figma plugin where you can conveniently copy element properties, paste them into XML, compile into normal code, and then flash to the device.

Phew, can relax now.

I’ve already started preparing an update for Lopaka with a full-fledged LVGL editor. But there’s still a ton of work ahead.

Calling all interested contributors to join the project. Hit me up anywhere.
