README
README.mdThis project is what i think an ideal portable pager would be like, powered by a risc-v core inside the ESP32-C6 on-board, it features a pretty standard interface for a pager: except for the
exceptionally larger LCD, it has 4 buttons for selecting and writing text.
Communication is made possible through various methods such as zigbee or wifi, the neat part is the Serial port which could allow for fun tinkering with computers and embedded devices.
Portability wise i have added an 18650 battery pack and all the circuitry necessary to make this an off-grid device.

Questions
What parts does the Zpui shld wg12864b use?
60 parts, built around the ESP32-C6-MINI-1U-H4 and 74HC595. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Zpui shld wg12864b KiCad files?
From the ambraglow/pager repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is zpui_shld_wg12864b.kicad_pcb and its schematic zpui_shld_wg12864b.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Zpui shld wg12864b design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
