A board file for the Elecrow CrowPanel 7.0" (DIS08070H, ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N4R8): 800x480 through mipi_rgb, GT911 on the
ESP32-S3's USB pins (elecrow_usb_phy.h frees them, behind a flag only this board sets), the Guition's vertical sizes
across a wider page, no rotation. Its 4 MB of flash take the CYD's budget: a partition table of the component's
(smart_display: partitions: 4mb_wide_slots, 1,984 KB slots), the icon fonts at 2 bits a pixel and the TLS client only
bring the firmware to 1,865,440 bytes, 91.8 % of a slot, with camera images kept. docs/ELECROW.md has the numbers and
the trade.
The add-on reads a large board's name from the type sensor's value, the editor offers the board under New screen and
draws the wide preview, tools/check.sh builds it with the budget, render_topbar and capture_ui take the panel's size.
Firmware 0.2.79; the CYD image is unchanged (1,633,760 bytes).
This fork builds from gittea.trippedonmy.name/Xandrossian/homeassistant_espscreen: the packages, the fonts, the
component and the add-on repository point there instead of GitHub.
The add-on ships ESPHome 2026.9.0: it builds an ESP32 with ESP-IDF itself
and keeps a compiler cache. firmware.py gives the CLI its own storage in
/data (ESPHOME_DATA_DIR /data/esphome, which the ESPHome Device Builder no
longer wipes on start; ESP-IDF and ccache in /data/idf, at most 1 GB;
compilers limited to the core count as PlatformIO ran them), removes the
unused PlatformIO once before the first ESP-IDF build, and leaves the new
folders out of backups.
Firmware 0.2.75: assertion_level SILENT in every board's esp32 block, the
core logs from INFO, and clock_parts() in runtime_model.h replaces sscanf.
timer_left() caps a running timer at its duration (the screen's clock runs
up to a second behind Home Assistant's). The packages keep min_version
2026.6.2, the top-level online_image and OTA passwords for new screens, so
an add-on or Device Builder that isn't updated yet keeps building every
screen; CI now builds both boards with the add-on's ESPHome and with
min_version. ESP-IDF's error names stay on, and build_flags stay under
platformio_options, because ESPHome 2026.9's LVGL reads only those.
tools/check.sh: 478 Python tests, 19/19 C++, editor; --firmware PASS with
ESPHome 2026.6.2 (CYD 87.7 %), 2026.8.1 (88.3 %) and 2026.9.0 (86.4 %,
was 91.5 %). Both bench screens OTA'd and watched for half an hour;
ESP Screens as a local add-on on the Yellow built both profiles
(CYD 1,037 s first build, 41 s unchanged). Details:
docs/TEST_RESULTS_0289.md.

packages/core.yaml sets wifi: power_save_mode: none. ESPHome merges it
under the screen's own wifi: block, which keeps the network, the password
and the hotspot, and the screen's own YAML still wins on the mode. The
YAML ESP Screens writes has had the line since app 0.2.24; screens with
an older or hand-written YAML ran ESPHome's ESP32 default light, and
their messages from Home Assistant waited 76-117 ms on the bench.
esphome config on the bench screens' Device Builder YAMLs: NONE for both
without a line of their own, LIGHT when the YAML says light. The bench
Guition, flashed from its Device Builder YAML: ping 15 ms average instead
of 117 ms. tools/check.sh: 474 Python tests (a new one keeps the core's
wifi: block to this one key), 19/19 C++, editor; firmware unchanged in
size (CYD 1,678,816 B, 91.5 %; Guition 2,055,280 B), since the checkout
profiles already had the line.

The two board profiles (5,000 lines each, 87 % the same text) become packages/core.yaml and one file per
board under packages/boards/: the hardware, a table of 84 sizes and font sizes, 18 hooks with the lines of C++
only that board adds inside a shared lambda, and the board's own sections. packages/cyd.yaml and
packages/guition.yaml keep their names and places (a screen installed from ESP Screens builds as before);
home-like-2432s028.yaml and guition-4848s040.yaml become the same entries for a checkout.
The firmware stays 0.2.70: the C++ ESPHome generates for each board, through the checkout profile and
through the GitHub package route, was compared line by line with the old profiles' (docs/TEST_RESULTS_0284.md).
tools/check_packages.py replaces tools/generate_packages.py; tools/profiles.py gives the tests and tools the
three files as one; docs/PROFILES.md says how the files fit together and how a board is added.

The CYD restarted under load: a slider fill rounded less than its track made
LVGL draw the fill into a buffer of its own size on every redraw (15-20 KB), and
when that allocation failed the refresh retried until the task watchdog fired.
Track and fill now share one radius, and tests/test_layer_free.py keeps every
layer-making style out of the profiles, the packages and the firmware headers.
A tile keeps only the fields every card uses; climate modes, select options,
weather, sun and timer times, the media title and the vacuum rows moved to an
Extra block that exists only while a state needs one, and the state copy became
a fingerprint. runtime_tiles::model went from 24,296 to 8,216 bytes.
The manual profile that bound tiles to fixed entities in the YAML is gone:
331 TILE* substitutions, DYNAMIC_TILES/TILE_COUNT/DIRECT_ACTIONS, the 80 Home
Assistant subscriptions, its tap handlers and scripts, its own vacuum card, its
guides and helper scripts, and the five stale header copies in the repository
root that two C++ tests were compiling instead of the components. esphome config
of both Easy profiles is unchanged by that cleanup.
tile_scroll and the wake overlay no longer light up on a tap, and the debug
sensor min_free reports the lowest free heap since boot. On the bench CYD static
RAM went from 32.0% to 22.8% and free heap from 64-77 KB to about 101 KB, with
78 KB as the lowest point over thirteen hours without a restart.
