This has been a project in the making for months (years?) and it’s finally in a state I can call “done”. I now have a string of LED lights hanging above my balcony that can be controlled from a phone.

There’s still work to be done, including adding patterns that aren’t just sweeps through the rainbow. Now that this is something that can actually be used, I hope to keep up the work and continue contributing to it.

Also, I really liked the way they made our fig look:
