Starting with a Strip of WS2812b’s that I had and an ESP8266 that has a voltage regulator and serial adapter already attached. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N3P763C/ is the exact one I have. This chip uses a CH340 serial adapter. Instructions for installing drivers can be found below https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/how-to-install-ch340-drivers/all Once the drivers are instal…
