# Simple WiFi RGB Light Controller We have a cheap LED strip that has RGB lights connected in parallel. The strip looks like a single LED, technically a single red, single green, and single blue LED. It came with a junk controller and terrible documentation. When we plugged it in it allows selecting between on/off, six colors, and a weird strobing animation. This project uses a ESP8266 WiFi enabled microcontroller that runs a HTTP server and connects to our network. There is a web based frontend that allows one to see what color is currently being displayed, select color, and program an animation. # ESP8266 Turn on the green LED maximum brightness, `curl -X POST http://rain-gutter-rgb.lan.rome7.com/rgb -d "color=00FF00"`. Get the current color in decimal, `curl http://rain-gutter-rgb.lan.rome7.com/dec`.
