I can stop adding more LEDs anytime I want, I just choose not to
summary
Starts with a tri‑color Arduino LED and escalates to wearable and wall panels, claiming one common codebase runs across Arduino, ESP8266, ESP32 and Raspberry Pi. Builds include a party outfit, a 1538‑pixel panel, a 12,288‑pixel array and finally 49,152 pixels driven by a Pi; all render through the same graphics library Framebuffer::GFX. Uses NeoPixel strings, RGB panels, SmartMatrix drivers and Linux debugging; projects mostly work but scale raises wiring, cost and refresh‑rate challenges.
