Does it have my graphics support?I think something with low resource requirements like this might be good for running on a pair of AR/MR glasses.

You might want to take a look at forthstation which runs on an esp32 and outputs to vga. It's relatively simple to switch to SPI lcds as the underlying esp32forth compiles under the arduino ide

There is some limited graphics support. The underlying system (ilo) has a branch for x11 providing a limited framebuffer and pointing device support, and the native x86 system optionally supports a low resolution display (but no mouse yet). My son & I are working on expanding the graphics functionality, though we aren't expecting to have this work finished until later this year.
