ESP8266-Led-Matrix-Web-Draw

Draw on your LED Matrix using a web interface

Still a WIP project

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions:

• YouTube
• Twitch
• Twitter

Huge thanks to David Watts for providing the base for the web interface code! Check out his channel here

Instructions

• Instructions for getting set up with the display can be found here. Wring here
• Download this repo
• Open up "DisplayWithWebscokets" in the Arduino IDE.
• Update secret.h with your WiFi details.
• Upload the sketch to your board.
• Check what IP address it received via the serial monitor.
• Edit "Web Interface/index.html" to change the IP address new WebSocket("ws://192.168.1.31:81");
• Open index.html with your web browser
• start drawing!

Next steps

• Put web interface on ESP8266
• Add support for dragging the cursor to paint many squares - Done
• Add ability to sync display to web interface
• Add the ability to load/save drawings
• Add Export to code option
• Too many to list them all!

WebSocketsServer.h file missing en repo ??

Hi

I downloaded the whole project from Github, updated the secret file with my Wifi credentials, but I can't compile as Arduino compiler indicates the WebSocketsServer.h is missing in project and I don't see on github too !
Problem with the repo ?

Thanks for help,
