The HD44780 standard displays are really useful for creating stand-alone projects.
They can be interfaced easily with many microcontroller platforms such as Arduino, MicroPython, etc.
Here is a 20x4 white LCD screen on a blue background fitted with I2C LCD controller (a backpack)
The I2C backpack allows to control of an LCD display using only two SDA and SCL pins of the I2C bus (commonly A4 and A5 on Arduino). It is a very valuable tool given the number of pins required to operate these displays. If you did already connected several sensors to your platforms, wiring directly a LCD display to your microcontrôler can become a real headache ... the I2C breakout fitted on the display will save you a lot of work.
The great thing about the I2C bus is that you can have other I2C devices sharing the same bus (without consuming more pins). You can even use several I2C LCD displays on the same microcontroller by modifying its address on the bus (see the I2C bus address pins / jumper).
Learning to use a I2C LCD is a good Arduino/MicroPython project as well as a nice introduction to I2C. This will also be a nice tool for future projects.
Thanks to the LiquidCrystal_I2C Arduino library and lcdi2c MicroPython library, take the control over the LCD is a breeze (see the Tutorial section). The library will manage the I2C communication with the LCD display. Tested and approved by MCHobby.
