Typically displays with integrated SRAM. To give an example, a recent project used a 480x320x16-bit display and an MCU with 64kb SRAM. The display/drawing buffer took 38kb of that (i.e. 1/8 of the display).

Cool! I’d say that’s the very low end for us, but we think that it should be possible to create decent UIs also for such configurations. It would require additional work for us to target that right now but we’d be happy to take that offline. Drop us an email at [email protected] please if you’re interested:)
We need to make our description a bit more precise - and we're working on comparisons. In terms of pure RAM usage (as opposed to ROM) in our experience the display resolution contributes a lot to what's left (unless there are dedicated frame buffers). So if you mention <= 64kb RAM, what kind of displays are you typically dealing with?
Generally I think we're aiming a little above LVGL/uGFX in terms of configuration, but also with with a much richer UI / features.
