  • WLED

    Control WS2812B and many more types of digital RGB LEDs with an ESP8266 or ESP32 over WiFi!

  • The WS2812B LEDs are connected to an ESP32 board which has WLED installed on it. You can put this together yourself for about $5. However, if you're inexperienced, I recommend this board where everything is pre-installed and you just need to feed it with 5V.

  • xLights

    xLights is a sequencer for Lights. xLights has usb and E1.31 drivers. You can create sequences in this object oriented program. You can create playlists, schedule them, test your hardware, convert between different sequencers.

  • On my PC, I use XLights to wirelessly connect to the controller, map my room and program the LEDs.

  • InfluxDB
