PixelIt - The Matrix Display

GitHub Workflow Status (with event) GitHub all releases GitHub Repo stars GitHub commit activity (branch) GitHub commit activity (branch) GitHub top language

The PixelIt is an ESP8266/ESP32 and WS2812B-LED based PixelArt display, controlled and fed via a JSON API. Settings and small tests are possible via the web interface, also a Node-RED node (node-red-contrib-pixelit) for the JSON API is available.

If you want to get an impression of the WebUI, you can do that here in Demo WebUI 🚀
