rpi-led-matrix-fire

A fire for the RGB LED Matrix built on oclif and rpi-rgb-led-matrix.
The fire is based on the »Doom Fire algorithm« and the code is heavily inspired by that random gist I found somewhere in the web.

About this project

After I finally bought an RGB LED Matrix I wanted to create something awesome with it.
After it became clear that we needed a medieval lantern for our amateur theatre, which was supposed to go out by magic, I had found my project.

The whole process of creating that lantern is documented here: tbd
