I wanted to add monitoring LDC display to my Pi

Materials:

Some Dupont connectors to attach display to Pi pins
OLED example https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07MHGPNVT I2C OLED Display Module 0.91

OLED Specimen:

Software backup - in case repository is gone from git I add it here:
ssd1306_on_raspberry_pi_4-main.zip

Pinout: https://pinout.xyz/pinout/i2c

How to do:

1. You need Raspberry Pi 2. You need to install:

git
python
build-essential
python3-dev
i2c-tools
you'll also need to add i2c-dev to /etc/modules, and do modprobe i2c-dev (or reboot)

git clone https://github.com/jeffisfast/ssd1306_on_raspberry_pi_4
cd ssd1306_on_raspberry_pi_4
python3 -mvenv .
bin/pip3 install Adafruit-Blinka RPi.GPIO pillow adafruit-circuitpython-ssd1306
bin/python3 ssd1306_stats.py
