Yeah, is 10MHz the fastest SPI clock? The Adafruit ILI9341 and TFT_eSPI Arduino libraries run 36MHz for the STM32F1 and 40MHz for the ESP

That's great! Thanks for posting it up!
I really like
websocketd- it seems like a really neat idea.Gettin the ILI9341 fast enough can be tricky - paletted mode can help sometimes (as you can build the whole image in RAM) but even then the updates aren't that fast. You do seem pretty limited by SPI - sending a whole screenful is 150kb, so even running SPI flat out at 10MHz it's still going to take over 1/10 of a second - and Espruino won't really manage that while doing the palette as well
