Contributing

The service is written in CSharp. You can do the following:

  1. Create color filters (such as Hearbeat) that can post-process on whatever mode is chosen.
  2. Create "sides" that operate on a single Led group independently.
  3. Create monitors to operate on a specific input.
  4. Keyboards tie everything together into a configuration.

Ideas

  1. Change colors based on local weather and a filter for time of day.
  2. Use filters to change color if ssh'd into a specific machine (say, production?).
  3. Use filters to alert on emails, or other notifications.
  4. Make this more pluggable.
