I want to do something like this. Should I get the esp32 or go with an Arduino/Raspberry Pico? Also, for the e-ink screen, is there anything I should watch out for? Do I need it without PCB or with? I want to order the pieces now and do something with Rust, but I wanna make sure I don't order something wrong. Any pointers would greatly be appreciated!
