This is all about controlling Fully Addressable LED Lights using any Espressif ESP32 or ESP8266 Development Board and your mobile Phone all through WIFI! All possible by WLED Project. Now I have used Raspberry Pi full-sized computers to control fully addressable LED before (mainly because of previous lack of great software/knowledge to work with ESP32 Development Boards) but Raspberry Pi’s are so much more than a simple addressable LED controller, they are full-on computers. So when it comes to a single addressable LED strip that you want to be good to go 24/7 but not necessarily be shining LED light everywhere all the time ESP32 are perfect for this application in regards to the much lower current draw (particularly when dormant), ease of power-cycling and significantly cheaper installation. Plus it will work with any NeoPixel or GlowBit Matrix. Replicating the patterns I create would be significantly harder to code from first principles than it is just to use this brilliant WLED App.
