Hello magicians, wizards, and pixel enchanters!

I’ve added a new XL storage version of V3 Standard. This version more than doubles the available storage for patterns from about 1.4MB to 3MB.

Internally, it has a 16MB flash chip over the current 4MB, with about 10.4MB currently unused with the intention of supporting media files in a future release.

The XL size is available in my shop, as well as on Tindie for a few bucks more.

Awesome! This wouldn’t by any chance translate to higher upper limits for maximum literal array size at some point would it? Though I assume flash storage was not actually the responsible constraint for this, but rather the ESP32’s limited internal RAM. If so, would leveraging additional external PSRAM ever be a consideration for a future version?
