Ask HN: What are the best programmable holiday lights?
https://kno.wled.ge/
Many 'effects' already prepackaged. Plus the ability to schedule time based changes (on/off/change pattern/etc.). Includes a web server to provide "app like" control over a phone or PC. Also includes integrations for several "home control" systems and a http API for programmatic control from another system. Can even synchronize plural controllers into a whole 'net' (note, I've not used this feature yet).
Small ESP32 boards (with wifi capability) such as this example (no affiliation, just an example that works):
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09Y8X1GK7
WS2811 LED strings [1] (of which there are an infinite variety) suitable for outdoor use. One example (no affiliation):
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CYZF1WCR
Suitable power supplies, outdoor weather sealed boxes, and wiring (all left to you to locate).
Willingness to assemble the pieces and some time to do so. Having a soldering iron is helpful here, although one could possibly get by with screw terminal blocks inside weatherproof boxes if need be for many of the 'connections'.
[1] Or other 'programmable LED' strings for which WLED is compatible (it works with numerous different programmable LED standards, browse the WLED website for details).

Anyone know where I could obtain these
I’ll do you one better: Here is the WLED main site - they cover everything - however you want it for your vehicle is up to you! (If you want to see a truck I personally worked (with 2 other main guys doing the woodwork and wiring) on that was probably the “most expensive” project with these controllers, check out the SEMA entered “Realtree Stormtrooper truck” - a LOT of time went in to that and almost a year of prep, not a fan myself, but custom electronics are what I like doing)

The perfect WLED board... is not working.
Did you use the esp32.bin? If so, you should instead use ESP32-C3 here: https://github.com/Aircoookie/WLED/releases/download/v0.14.0/WLED_0.14.0_ESP32-C3.bin

What is your preferred light strip for outdoor (indirect light under deck near wooden hot tub) application?
I run these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01CDTELBE and WLED. As I add more strips I'll keep using these until I run into some issue. I've got 4 of the 16ft strips and haven't had any issue with them thus far and its been about 3 months thus far. I have them hooked into Home Assistant, but I really like the WLED interface and all the presets and options. Also, I highly recommend running https://ledfx.app/ and sitting something near a speaker. Sound sync isn't perfect, but its one of the best I've seen so far for LED strips that doesn't require a ton of effort

MP3/Spotify tracks to DMX light mapping.
I'm a developer for LedFx. https://ledfx.app/ Currently I am working on Spotify integration (set song & time then activate scene) & QLC+ integration (on LedFx scene, change QLC+ virtual console button/slider). Maybe 2 months away

Are FastLED and LedFX similar to WLED? Do they have better sound reactive effects than the SR fork?
I can recommend LedFx for sound reactive effects. It runs on your Computer (or a Raspberry Pi) and streams the effects to your devices. It works great with WLED and is easy to install. It takes only about 15 minutes to get started and play around a bit, so you don't really loose anything if you don't like it in the end. If you are using windows you can just download the installer.
