+## Pico Dashboard MVP Plan
+
+MVP means Minimum Viable Product.
+
+Goal:
+
+    Prove Pico 2 W can reliably read ESP32 status over UART and display live data.
+
+Phase 1:
+
+- MicroPython on Pico 2 W / RP2350
+- UART to ESP32 dashboard UART
+- USB debug output
+- Request status from ESP32
+- Parse status JSON
+
+Phase 2:
+
+- ST7796S display bring-up
+- Backlight control
+- Hello World screen
+- Static dashboard layout
+
+Phase 3:
+
+- Live battery card
+- Runtime / time-to-full card
+- Temperature list
+- Relay state list
+- ESP32 connection indicator
+
+Phase 4:
+
+- Touch support using FT6336U
+- Page navigation
+- Relay controls
+- Alarm details
+
+Do not start with touch or config UI on the Pico. The WebUI is the preferred configuration workflow.
