Any reason you decided to "reinvent the wheel" instead of using an existing solution like Prismatic or Hyperion?

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
2 projects | /r/WS2812B | 19 Dec 2022

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.
