It features an easy-to-use webinterface that runs on an ESP8266, which was forked from jasoncoon. The website allows for easy access to different patterns, brightness, and power control. ## Hardware - 1x Wemos D1 mini is recommended, but any other ESP8266 variant should work too, requiring an additional step-down converter. - 2m WS2812B LED Strip IP30, ensure you choose this rating; any other will not fit.
