After watching a Frank Krueger Twitch stream I bought some more electronics. This time a Dot Matrix Module to display some cool information. I also bought an ESP8266 for the brains of it, and some mini breadboards to add to the collection of kit.
Code
I made a build status IoT thing! Automatically polls @bitrise and is even Alexa controlled (for brightness and to turn off).
