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.

- Issues with Prismatik

I created a Raspberry Pi Pico based LED Strip Controller with a USB Interface (Source Code in Description)
Any reason you decided to "reinvent the wheel" instead of using an existing solution like Prismatic or Hyperion?

Another LG C2 42" monitor success story (pic only, no story)
I'm using something like this: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256801541807301.html (just an Arduino Nano clone with WS2811 LEDs). And with this software.

Connect LED to games
as far as I know, 2 method of ws2812 responding to a computer is by sound / audio reactive (WLED& prismatik) and ambient color lighting (prismatik). Other ambient color applications also available with relatively similar (more or less) feature to prismatik.
- Ambibox huge frame drop while gaming...

Added some ambientlight to my monitor using an arduino and ws2812B LED's. I love it
Looks like Lightpack is the operative software in use here.

Guru Meditation Error if more than 2 Pins/ 2 controller are used with filehandling
I used the examples from here https://github.com/FastLED/FastLED/wiki/Multiple-Controller-Examples

- Is there an alternative to using two WS2811 ics to control RGBW channels [first image], and are there any adjustments needed for the current regulator circuit [second image] ?
- Frames getting stuck with ESP32 and 16 by 16 LED Matrix
- changing brightness of the individual led's?

Multiple RGB outputs
Sweet. Then pretty much any arduino or other microcontroller would take care of what you need. The strips only take one output pin plus power and ground so just about everything will work for driving them. They act like a long shift register so the single pin is all that's needed to load the full strip with whatever patterns you want regardless of the length. You just have to tell it how many LEDs there are in total is all. Check out the FastLED library. You can learn more about it there and/or install the library in the IDE by pressing "ctrl shift I" for windows or "command shift I" for mac and search for it in the upper search area and install it right there. It comes with working examples too so all you would have to do is install the library, load one of the new example sketches that came with it, and probably edit the example to change the NUM_LEDS count to match what you're working with.
