Thank you for the tutorial! I was finally able to put my OLED together with Pico and print some stuff on the display!

Thank you so much man! I really appreciate how you explained all of the parameters and stuff that you were using. I'm just barely starting to learn microcontroller programming, and almost all of the other videos I've watched up to this point just tell you what code to enter without any explanation, which honestly isn't hardly helpful at all. I need to know WHY I am entering parameters where they are, and what they mean, or else I can't actually learn it lol. So thank you for doing that, wonderful video!

I love this video with a lot of explanation. It work first time. I use this mighty 1" screen to identify my robots. Now they will have their own logo.

perfect timing, just got my 5x oled clock running using a tca9548a, may add some animation on oled 6

[renzkyeastwood]

Great video! Could you show how to increase text size, or use another font? This would be nice.

[sykoremag]

Thank you so much this is the only tutorial with full details

Great video, as always. There is only so much time in the day so I feel sometimes I get to code vicariously through you. :)

Most excellent, this was my next project and you saved me quite a bit of time, I owe you a beer. Keep broadcasting!!

[davidlangevin]

Thank you very much! Very down to earth and easy to follow! It got me up and running easily. A very satisfied customer!

[Mark-tusv]

really like your video, especially the Pi 4 in the car. I'm thinking to put one in too.

[ItsJGonzo]

Thank you! You inspire me to learn what you just did.

[TheRealFrankWizza]

Your tutorials are pretty good man. Quick and to the point.
Do you know anything about ROS?

[monacofranze]

Thank you for your Video. It is easy to understand und very well made. I just startet with the Pico and bought a ssd1306 and a BME280, so i hope to be able to programme a small weather station with the Pico. This Video is one Step on the ladder to do so ;)

[gravestoner]

Sweet! I have an oled i haven't used yet and my picos will be here any day now :D thanks

[simoncowen]

Thankyou really enjoyed following it. 🙂
