  • software for SK6812 RGBW led's
    1 project | /r/led | 24 Aug 2022
    I have bought 2 rolls of LEDs a power supply and a raspberry pi zero w. I have soldered everything together and I have put de led data input on gpio pin 18 on my raspberry but I can't find any software to run my LEDs I have 2 meters and 288 LEDs running on 5v. If someone could find/make/help me make software to control the LEDs I would appreciate it very much. I am not someone who can code so I cannot write it myself and I also tried this : https://jackw01.github.io/led-control/

    The SK6812B is also called a "neopixel". Every LED on the strip is individually controllable. I use projects like https://github.com/cpldcpu/light_ws2812 and https://github.com/jackw01/led-control/ to control them.
