NeoPixelEffects Library
A library made to complement the FastLED library by Daniel Garcia by providing various visual effects, such as fading, sparkles, static, etc.
After downloading, rename folder to 'NeoPixelEffects' and install in Arduino Libraries folder. Restart Arduino IDE, then open File->Sketchbook->Library->NeoPixelEffects->CometEffectExample sketch.
