Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Diffuser for pixel matrix
I whipped up a quick ESPHome wrapper (as a custom component) for this library: https://github.com/mrfaptastic/ESP32-HUB75-MatrixPanel-DMA
- What would I need to make this with arduino?
- Cloud Based LED Matrix (HUB75) Display Controllers

Taking over a Dead IoT Company
The ESP32 can handle a 64x64 HUB75 display pretty handily. Several of them, even. There’s a solid library out there [0] that just pumps pixels right from memory via the ESP32’s built-in DMA engine. Adafruit_GFX is the supported library for drawing primitives/text/bitmaps/etc., so you can re-use a lot of code that’s out there.
But let’s start with a simple, quick hit of dopamine: There’s a web-based installer [1] (it uses web serial, so Chrome is required) for a couple varieties of clock designed for a 64x64 HUB75 panel and an ESP32. $20 in parts from AliExpress if you already have a suitable 5V power supply.
To use that site, all you need is that aforementioned 5V power supply—4A or more recommended, 10A if you’re planning to drive a full panel of pixels on an outdoor panel at full brightness—a 64x64 HUB75 matrix panel, and an ESP32. Everything except power is run directly to the ESP32. Many panels even come with a 16-pin female IDC connector for the panel, with individual DuPont-style female connectors at the other end that you can just slip over the pins on the ESP32.
The source code for each clock (repo is linked from the web page) is a great starting point for making your own versions.
The panels, as others have mentioned, are shockingly cheap from the usual sources like eBay [2] or AliExpress (search for “HUB75 panel” or “p3 64x64”), but even those in a hurry can get a 64x64 panel for under $40 from Amazon [3].

Just finished this rebuild from original to ESP32
I'm about to share the whole project documentation in german. I used ESP32-HUB75-MatrixPanel-DMA with additional 74HC245 to shift the levels up from 3.3 to 5v (as there is a 2m flat cable running through the frame to the display). The Library is based of Adafruit GFX, for which you can find plenty of examples. If you don't want blanking, use two buffers or partially repaint (for the text and image animation I added black filled boxes on each redraw before painting the new position/text). The ESP32 has just enough pins to power the basic functions, but I'm about to order a new PCB with a portexpander, which frees some pins and allows for blinking buttons. Will add a DFPlayer Mini as well, as soon my customer decided, which MP3 files he wants.

how do i connect this panel to my esp32/breadboard? cant find any videos online i want to run a pxmatrix library
will this work? , also im very new to this space but very willing to learn . so far all i have is the freenove starterkit that came with an esp32 because the first one i got from aliexpress wasn't showing up in arduino IDE, but i have a feeling it just wasn't configured properly.

Read gif from sd card, display on Wa2812B matrix. Difficult to find examples.
Here's some sample code that does exactly that this is a "HUB75" board, but it looks like a HUB75 is just an ESP32 with an LED matrix attached. The code should work fine for you so long as you change the number of LEDs, and the pin out.

unless someone can help me fix the Arduino Code...

32 x 32 led panels
I've always used esp32 microcontrollers to drive those things (shameless plug: https://github.com/hanneslinder/esp-pixel-matrix)

Its been done many times but here is my ESP32 pixel matrix
Code can be found here: https://github.com/hanneslinder/esp-pixel-matrix Just note that this is my first time writing cpp ever so the code quality might be questionable :D
