ESPHome extends its WLED light effect to ESP32 devices built with ESP-IDF. The effect receives lighting frames over the network, allowing those lights to follow the same supported WLED streams that previously required Arduino.

J. Nick Koston extends the receiving code to ESP-IDF while retaining the supported frame formats and synchronization groups.
