HA SwitchPlate HASPone: DIY In-Wall Touchscreen Home Assistant Controller

[nickrout]

@luma, I wonder if you might let this guy know if his plan is viable?

Sonoff + Touch Screen?

I have seen the HASwitchPlate topic, but I’m wondering if I could utilize the ESP8266 inside the Sonoff Basic to connect to the Nextion Touch Screen? All it seems to need is 5V, GND, TX, RX, all of which the Sonoff Basic has, however my Google-fu couldn’t uncover anything so I’m thinking its not possible for some reason I am overlooking.
