Customer:

I’m fairly new to ESPHome. I’ve created a configuration that gets data from all the onboard sensors, but I’m not sure how to display that data on the Inkplate 4 TEMPERA display. Is there an existing ESPHome component for this?

There isn’t a dedicated ESPHome component for the display, but you can reference the Arduino code examples in the examples/sensors folder. These show how to read and print sensor data on Inkplate 4 TEMPERA, including graphics drawing to the actual screen, which could be useful if you want to draw the sensor readings on the display.
