Welcome to the software that powers the LED light display on the front of the Infolab.
If you're here to write an effect for the display, have a play around with The Playground.
When you've written your effect, fork the repo and add the effect as a js file alongside the others in web/priv/js_effects/, then submit a PR!
If you're submitting an effect, please make sure it follows these rules:
- Effects must not display explicit/ offensive content.
- Effects must not fetch external resources.
For obvious reasons, PRs containing effects that violate these restrictions will be rejected.
