DioT 2023 Skills Dev III: Ambient Orb

For this project, I'll be using IFTTT to connect the Particle device to my Google Calendar. This device will alert me with a light 15 minutes before the start of the meeting, while the light gradually changes during those 15 minutes to remind me that the time is approaching, and finally when the meeting starts, the light of the device fades.

Create an ambient orb that changes color from white to red when it is 15min before any event starts on my google calender

To make the ambient light light up red when there is an event 15 mins out

Create an ambient display of notification using webhook to trigger the display by IFTTT.

This exercise aims to create an ambient calendar alert using a neopixel strip. Within the project, I connected my Particle device to my Google Calendar through IFTTT. This will send an alert to my particle argon device a few minutes before any appointment.
