FastLED Basics Episode 2 - Color: RGB and HSV

In the second episode of FastLED basics, we look at using color. If you've done any programming before, you might be aware of the RGB color system, and this is great for drawing pictures on a screen. But if we want to make interesting LED patterns, we're much better off using the HSV system instead. We will also cover setting the brightness for the whole strip, LED color correction, and color temperature settings. GitHub link for code: https://github.com/s-marley/FastLED-b...
