I found a cool video by Chris Riley.
In this video, he explains and builds a Wifi Printer Monitor for Octoprint, based on 3D PRINTER MONITOR WEMOS D1 MINI ESP8266.
I liked this idea, ordered the ESP8266 and the display and build up my own. It can be used anywhere at home where I have a wifi-connection. You only need USB-Power!

That's a very cool project and it looks like a lot of fun.
im trying to do this and getting this error
Arduino: 1.8.12 (Windows Store 1.8.33.0) (Windows 10), Board: "WEMOS D1 mini, 160 MHz, 80MHz, DIO, 115200, 1M (256K SPIFFS)"

This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.
Windows is case-insensitive but sometimes a particular different shell might be case-sensitive. You might try a dir /s base64.h
to verify the capitalization of the filename. It might be Base64.h
or something as simple as that.
