Hello my friend.

I follow your guide lines, and still having this error message :

Platform not found: 'light.addressableCWWW'.

platform: addressableCWWW name: Output id: controller icon: mdi:led-strip type: CWN variant: WS2811 method: ESP32_I2S_0 cold_white_temperature: 6000 K warm_white_temperature: 2700 K pin: 25 num_leds: 22 effects:

Esphome Don´t recognize the platform.

  Can you help me ?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for reaching out, and I'm amused you found this repository, but I'm currently still trying to make it work correctly. I was in touch with the ESPHome developers, and despite their eagerness to see this feature implemented, they don't have time to work on it at the moment. I created this repository to show them my progress thus far, but have since tried using a different approach to making it work.

The current approach I've been using is to modify the "esp32_rmt_led_strip" platform, but due to my rather weak coding skills in C++ and vague comprehension of the ESPHome platform's back end, I haven't succeeded yet.

I will attempt to get it working in the next couple months, and will try to let you know if I find a functional configuration.

Have a long and pleasant life.
