PROFILE

Ken Van Hoeylandt

Worked on the espressif/esp-bsp repository to modernize the LVGL API integration by migrating from deprecated user data APIs to the newer driver data APIs, ensuring compatibility with LVGL v8 and above. This update maintained existing UI behavior while refactoring the codebase for improved maintainability and a smoother upgrade path. The approach focused on regression-safe changes, enabling easier onboarding for contributors and simplifying future migrations. Leveraged C programming, embedded systems expertise, and driver development skills to implement these changes, which strengthened BSP stability and facilitated faster delivery of UI features without introducing user-visible changes or altering core functionality.
