I worked with NeariX67 on a version of WLED. To create a working clock with WLED. If you are unfamiliar with WLED check it out here.

This version of WLED uses an effect that gives you the clock face. https://github.com/NeariX67/WLED_Clock My segments for the numbers has 5 LEDs per section. This version of WLED was created to work off these numbers. It has 115 LEDs for the clock itself and 12 LEDs for the downlights for a total of 127 LEDs. With this version, I loaded the firmware onto a D1mini esp8266 since WLED integrates into my Home Assistant https://www.home-assistant.io/ I can control the brightness based on either the lights in the room or the location of the sun. I can even set an automation to turn off the clock when we all sleep.

I am in the process of completing the covers for the clock. I wanted to at least get the software out so people can use it to make their own clocks user friendly without paying any additional money looking at you blynk. I will add completed photos when I have completed the covers on this project.
