+# Installation
 If you intend to use, compile and run this code you need to:
 - have a WS2812FX strip on **Pin 3 (RX)** on a ESP8266 (nodemcu / wemos D1 mini)
 - set necessary build flags: e.g.: https://github.com/tobi01001/LED_Stripe_Dynamic_web_conf/blob/f0b13fc76f681254713509b9c1da90bc5ba5ca40/platformio.ini#L21-L26
-defining the LED_NAME (the web page and hostname is set to this) and the number of LEDs (LED_COUNT) on the stripe (theoretically limited to 65535 but for performance reasons rather limited to 300 (max fps you can get with 300 LEDs will be around 111)

 - upload the compiled code
 
+*Remark: The use of AsyncWebServer required some modifications in how parameters are sent to the WebPage. If - after uploading for the first time or a new version - the webpage does not react on commands, please use the "resetDefaults" button.

 I personally use platform.io with Visual Studio Code. So I don't know exactly how to do this with the Arduino IDE.
 
 When you first startup and the WiFiManager Library does not find credentials being stored it will open a WiFi access point. Connect to it and navigate to 192.168.4.1. There you should be able to connect to your WiFi. After restrart the ESP connects to your Wifi and if its ready to go all the LEDs will fade to Green and back to black...
 
 If you define the DEBUG build flag (-DDEBUG) it will enable debug code and the WifiManager will also publish the IP-Adress received...
