Gordon already created a first short tutorial how to write extensions to Espruino.
Some time ago I got some WS2812 into my hand. Graphics class was a first step into using them.
Problem started in the moment, I tried to make ssimple animations.
Speed is the name of the problem, so I started to create my first extension.
During this time, I learned a lot and now its time to add my 2 cents to documentation for Espruino

That looks really helpful - thanks!

I could add links to this to https://github.com/espruino/Espruino#modification ?

@Gordon
Of course, feel free to add a link on your page.
Another option could be to move the md-files, which are behind my pages, into your documentation.
There is no copyright on these files, so feel free to do with it whatever is helpful for Espruino.

Ok, thanks! That could be great - I just thought you might have had a reason to have kept them separate :)

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
