Hi everyone!
I spent all day yesterday documenting a project I have been working on for weeks. Since it took a lot of work to figure out the steps needed, and some time to architect methods to create designs and animate them, I decided to share it in a very detailed blog post! I hope this helps anyone learn how NeoPixels works and how to program them with memory efficiency in mind!
