/*
  An example showing rainbow colours on a 1.8" TFT LCD screen
  and to show a basic example of font use.

  Make sure all the display driver and pin connections are correct by
  editing the User_Setup.h file in the TFT_eSPI library folder.

  Note that yield() or delay(0) must be called in long duration for/while
  loops to stop the ESP8266 watchdog triggering.
