How To Make Your Kano Pixel Kit Run Arduino Code

I found out you could use the Kano Pixel Kit with Arduino IDE after Kano World didn't work. Install the esp32 package from Espressif and select "uPesy ESP32 Wroom Dev Kit" or "DOIT ESP DEVKIT" and then flash your code. If you want you can use FastLED to control the LEDs. Put the type of LED as WS2812B and the amount of LEDs as 128.

Use this pinout when in Arduino IDE

NEOPIXEL_PIN = 4

SIZE = 128 # Amount of leds

WIDTH = 16 # Number of columns

HEIGHT = 8 # Number of lines

DIAL_PIN = 36

JOYSTICK_UP_PIN = 35

JOYSTICK_DOWN_PIN = 34

JOYSTICK_LEFT_PIN = 26

JOYSTICK_RIGHT_PIN = 25

JOYSTICK_CLICK_PIN = 27

BUTTON_B_PIN = 18

BUTTON_A_PIN = 23

BUTTON_RESET = 5 # Button on the back of the board

MICROPHONE_PIN = 39
