# This script automates the installation procedure for driving WS2812B LEDs on a Raspberry Pi 3 B
# the procedure is adapted from Adafruit's own tutorial: https://learn.adafruit.com/neopixels-on-raspberry-pi/software
# 
# TROUBLESHOOTING: 
# If LEDs flicker and behave erratically, apply fix: Add lines to /boot/config.txt:
#   hdmi_force_hotplug=1
#   hdmi_force_edid_audio=1
