@noerw its fantastic! :-) The display is working an also the build script is working fine. I tried some changes and its working flawless. Maybe I'll try to change the Display library to https://github.com/greiman/SSD1306Ascii and see if we can save some space. |

u8x8 also might be an option; last time i used it it was pretty small. |

This adds support for the SSD1306 display, showing status information on the OLED, if it is connected.
Depends on #74.

Note that this adds around 10kb to the compiled OTA bootloader, getting quite close to the reserved 64kb.
This means that adding more functionality (eg checksumming, /ping endpoint, ...) or updating libraries likely requires spending time on optimizing the bootloader size (there should be plenty of room for optimization), or growing the reserved bootloader space by 8kb (meaning currently flashed OTA bootloaders will be incompatible with the bigger one, and only 176kb are left for user code).
