Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried:

Want to run ESPHome on 5-inch and 7-inch screen screen size models of the CrowPanel Advance series touchscreens come with presoldered ESP32-S3.

Those touch screens also come with built-in microphone and speaker connector so could potentially be used for voice assistant development.

"found the CrowPanel Advance ESP32 displays on Aliexpress for $25.99 to $54.19 depending on the selected model and whether any of the wireless modules shown above is added as an option. But you can also purchase the displays and wireless modules on the company’s store."

Additional context

These don't only come with presoldered ESP32-S3 but also have a free slot for an extra ESP32 that could be used as a Thread Border Router.

Elecrow’s CrowPanel Advance is a family of 2.8-inch to 7-inch ESP32-S3 WiFi and BLE displays that supports replaceable modules for Thread/Zigbee/Matter, WiFi 6, 2.4GHz, and LoRa (Meshtastic) connectivity.
