You can use them as regular (RGB) addressable LEDs. Then instead of Color wheel (or with it) enable RGB sliders in UI. You will be able to control individual white...

leds[] array is in fact double-buffering. It can be global/permanent or local/effect specific (temporary). Unfortunately most often leds[] represent RGB array stripping away W support WLED has. Still, using leds[],...

Sorry, I misunderstood the original post. 😄 Overloading leds[XY(x,y)] with a setPixelColor/getPixelColor is a nice idea. Though, rarely needed since leds[] serves its own purpose IMO. If using global leds[],...

I have been porting FastLED effects (25 currently) to WLED using dynamic leds[] array and it only takes 8 lines of code to make simple effects work.

One more note regading global `leds[]`. WLED handles color in uint32_t whereas CRGB is effectively uint24_t and as such discarding/loosing W channel. If `leds[]` is implemented as a global to...

@ewoudwijma has started work on this [here](https://github.com/blazoncek/WLED/commit/69f9a484ca3b6defcf246fca547bec33fa141bd9). So the recommendation would be to overload [] and =operators to support setPixelColor and getPixelColor

Although I would prefer WLED way of writing effects (using `setPixelColor()` & `getPixelColor()`) most people familiar with FastLED will find it awkward. Unfortunately it is true that converting FastLED effect...

What is the time-frame for choppiness? I am running this on Ethernet enabled ESP32 with 1000 client (network) pixels on 3 ESPs (ESP01, Wemos D1 mini, ESP32) and not seeing...

Excellent find and diagnose! Thank you. Do you have a recommendation on where to put rate limiting? Should it be bus (higher level) or network output (lower level)? Or should...

UDP uses _send and forget_ principle. Does not deal with acknowledgements from client.
