The research on simple multitasking with RP2040 to emulate RTOS

# Arduino IDE setup

It was made for [LiLyGO T-Display RP2040](https://github.com/Xinyuan-LilyGO/LILYGO-T-display-RP2040/tree/main) 

using [TFT_eSPI](https://github.com/Bodmer/TFT_eSPI/tree/master) library as a display driver.

The following dependecies should be installed:

1. [Pico board package](https://github.com/earlephilhower/arduino-pico) by Earle Philhower

2. [TFT_eSPI](https://github.com/Bodmer/TFT_eSPI/tree/master) library by Bodmer

3. [SafeString](https://github.com/PowerBroker2/SafeString) library by Matthew Ford

The installation instructions for each dependency provided below.

### Earle Philhower's board package

You can install Earle Philhower's board package using additional boards manager of Arduino IDE as following (MacOS):

1. Start the Arduino IDE and go to `Arduino IDE->Settings`.

2. At the bottom in the "Additional boards manager URLs" field type link to the board package repository:

```shell

https://github.com/earlephilhower/arduino-pico/releases/download/global/package_rp2040_index.json

```

3. Go `Tools->Boards manager` in the IDE menu

4. Type 'pico' in the search box and select "Add"

5. Make sure to install version `3.2.2` **not higher**, because the latest versions doesn't work properly with TFT_eSPI library

### TFT_eSPI library

1. Clone [TFT_eSPI](https://github.com/Bodmer/TFT_eSPI/tree/master) repository

2. Copy files from repository into `libraries/TFT_eSPI` directory inside of the Arduino sketches directory

3. Edit the file `libraries/TFT_eSPI/User_Setup_Select.h` to use correct driver for the Lilygo T-Display RP2040 (ST7789 on SPI bus with 135x240 TFT) 

as following:

  - uncomment the line `#include ` 

  - comment out the line `#include `.

### SafeString library

Can be installed using `Tools->Manage Libraries..` and search for `SafeString`.
