Simple Electronics
In this video, I talk about a fantastic piece of software; WLED. Created by Aircoookie and a handful of contributors is the best way to control addressable LEDs like WS2812 (Neopixels) and SK6812.
WLED is an awesome piece of software which installs directly from a web browser and allows you to control all sorts of addressable LEDs directly from your browser, on your phone, it allows you to save presets and create playlists. This stuff is AWESOME!
