Bonus for using the ESP32--it can run Micropython, and the Micropython Neopixel library is quite good. A long time ago, I wrote a package for prototyping and managing animations. Feel free to take a look at that--the release pages contain sample projects.
I saw WLED which is *fairly* close to what I want. It provides the phone app, but also provides a flash image for the esp chip that you basically just plug the strip into.
setting up your own simple webserver
just executing commands directly in Micropython via the BLE UART REPL
