Customer:
Can Inkplate 10 be connected to a PC, or only to a Raspberry Pi? Can it run software like Android, Linux or Windows, or is it only meant for displaying pictures?

Soldered Support:
Inkplate has an ESP32 microcontroller and can’t run Windows. You also can’t run Android on the Inkplate.
You can connect Inkplate to a PC and program it from Arduino IDE. There are examples and projects for every version of Inkplate. Inkplate also has peripheral mode so you can send commands to it and show data without reprogramming the board.
See the documentation for more details about peripheral mode:
