In case anyone want’s the configuration for this device here is what I have come up with

api:
  services:
    # Service to play a rtttl tone
    - service: play_rtttl
      variables:
        song_str: string
      then:
        - rtttl.play:
            rtttl: !lambda 'return song_str;'
    
binary_sensor:
  - platform: gpio
    pin: 
      number: GPIO38
      inverted: true
    name: "click"


sensor:
  - platform: rotary_encoder
    name: "Rotary Encoder"
    pin_a: GPIO36
    pin_b: GPIO37
    
light:
  - platform: neopixelbus
    type: GRB
    variant: WS2811
    pin: GPIO25
    num_leds: 2
    name: "NeoPixel Light"
    
    
output:
  - platform: ledc
    pin: GPIO19
    id: rtttl_out

rtttl:
  output: rtttl_out

It seems to work quite nice.
It’s very responsive, if I do a fast spin it seems to detect all the steps but it’s hard to know for sure.
With the limited tests so far, I would say it’s better than IKEA Symfonisk rotary encoder when it comes to responsiveness.
The button is too smal for my taste, but it works fine.

Quite cute, but as you say a little small.
