Hi,
Could someone please give me advice on the questions down below? I am just overwhelmed at how many libraries and methods there are.
I am trying to build a simple weatherstation using a DUE, 7 inch TFT and an ESP-01 (ESP8266) on Serial3. I am accessing data from openweathermap
and can successfully download a 7 day forecast using One Call API. Data is below but has some of my own formatting ...mydt..and a COUNT for readability only . Please assume i have original JSON formatted data. For starters I want to graphically display the 8 day ( Current +7 days) forecast on the TFT. My issue is using a JSON parser.....

Bytes Rxd =4740
- Which JSON library should I use?
- The data is 4,740 bytes long. Can I use a JSON call to read the data as it comes in on Serial3, thus not having to create a string of 4,740 bytes length?
This is the most confusing thing for me. - Can someone point me an example where they using an Arduino board (MEGA/DUE)and ESP-01. ( not an example with a Main ESP board)?
I obviously want data like max temp, min temp, sunrise, sunset and weather forecast etc for each day .... from a JSON parse.
A full blown One Call API download is around 20,500 bytes, but I will start with just the current + 7 day forecast at 4700 bytes.
Thanks
