🔆 Light Meter Project — Turning K10 into a Real Analog Meter

Check this out - mircemk turned the UNIHIKER K10 into a working analog light meter! By tapping into the ESP32-S3 core, makers managed to run standard Arduino libraries like TFT_eSPI and display drivers such as Adafruit ILI9341, bringing classic Arduino-style development to K10. The result? A fully functional analog meter with auto-range scaling and precise light measurements.
