Process

  •  I started this project by soldering the neopixel and developing a basic circuit to understand the functionality of neopixel strip such as switching on the LED's and learning on how to fade the neopixel over time.
  • I then learnt on how to fade Neopixels using the millis(). Using millis() was a tricky part for me initially. 
  • Once I designed the functionality and circuit was completed. I then extended my functionality to incorporate a push button to allow user to dismiss the alert. 
  • Post completion of the functionality, I tried connecting the circuit to the IFTTT platform. It was pretty easy to connect the circuit to the IFTTT platform following the steps given in the lab website. 
  • One of the challenge was to debug, whether the calendar alert is getting pushed or not. as the trigger time was not exactly at 15 mins prior to meeting start time.
