LCD Display Blank after Flashing Marlin 2.0.x on Anet A6 Motherboard

Hello!I recently bought a new Anet A6 motherboard after my old one fried. I installed the Optiboot bootloader on to it with an Arduino Uno. After doing that I uploaded Marlin 2.0.x using visual studio. I followed the tutorial by the Crosslink channel (https://youtu.be/38PkynA1uGI). The upload went through to my Anet A6, but the LCD display remained blank. Where did I go wrong? Was there a problem with the libraries? Could the Anet A6 not be flashed by such up to date firmware? Thank you for your help!

I find that marlin and screens is a real pita !

Haha thank you for your response! What exact libraries should I have added? I added the Marlin configuration files to the Marin folder. Do I need anything else?
