This is for use with PlatformIO, go on https://github.com/philibertc/adalight_ws2812b/releases/download/v1.0/Adalight_WS2812b.ino for the Arduino IDE edition (you will need to download FastLED with the Arduino IDE's library manager).
This is a fork of Adalight working with WS2811/WS2812 LED using the FastLED library.

Data pin of the LED strip goes on pin 6 (D6). You will need to edit the main.cpp (or the .ino) file in PlatformIO (or Arduino IDE) if you have more than 240 LEDs.
- An Arduino Nano (genuine or not).
- A 1000µF (or more) electrolytic capacitor.
- A resistance between 200 and 600 Ohms.
- WS2812B RGB LED strip (max 240 LEDs) I recommend a strip with 60 LEDs/meter.
- A 5v power supply. To calculate the required current do: 0.06A ×
NUM_LEDS. - A soldering iron and cables Dupont wires and 3 lines LED strip edge connector.
- Solderless breadboard proto-board (if you want to do a welded version).
