Resources and Going Further
The TeensyView was designed to be as flexible as possible while still being able to nest down into a low-profile addition to the Teensy.
Some various TeensyView-Teensy connections. The bottom centermost TeensyView was created using this guide, while the left is a minimal non-separable configuration. Using a breadboard is also an option.
The TeensyView works with some really heavy examples, but they're really only demonstrations. What to do with it is up to you! They're great for adding simple debug info to a mobile project, while a diligent pixel artist could implement a whole menu system.
More information about the SSD1306 controller and the TeensyView design can be found here:

Additional projects and sketches that use the TeensyView:
- The HighSpeedTest, in the examples folder, draws alternating pixels as fast as possible. This can be used to experiment with the limits of the TeensyView's OLED.

AVR-Based Serial Enabled LCDs Hookup Guide
The AVR-based Qwiic Serial Enabled LCDs are a simple and cost effective solution to include in your project. These screens are based on the HD44780 controller, and include ATmega328P with an Arduino compatible bootloader. They accept control commands via Serial, SPI and I2C (via PTH headers or Qwiic connector). In this tutorial, we will show examples of a simple setup and go through each communication option.
