Hey there! I am trying to keep the project as cheap as possible on the electronic side, i found a Raspy Pi RP-PICO on sale at a hardware store near me. Can the software be used on the raspy? Or does it need to be a arduino?

You would need to use a alternative fork for it
Probably wouldn't recommend it since the Pico only has 4 analog pins
You can source a Nano clone from aliexpress for about 2.50 or less

Ah what a bummer. Was on sale for 5€.
Could have picked it up and worked on the project over the weekend

Well if you want to keep it as cheap as possible, buy your parts from aliexpress

I dont want to cheap out to the absolute max, i am trying to keep it in a certain scope.
Would a NodeMCU-ESP32 work?
Oop that has no analog

They are interchangeable usable?
Oh hot damn!
I was only familiar with the arduino uno‘s dedicated analog and digital pins

Esp32 will work, needs a bit of modifications though (search fkr esp32 in the Discord)

Thank you very much!
I‘ll see what i can get done with the esp32‘s i got at home, gotta get Wled off of there
Where could i get a nano or pro micro with an usb c port?
Nvm found something ahaha

They're everywhere on aliexpress

Never ordered something on aliexpress, don’t want to wait weeks for my package to arrive.

Depends on where you are, I've gotten packages as soon as a week before

Europe?
There seems to be a esp32 project for deej. That way it can be used wirelessly.
Seems interesting, only problem with that would be integrating a charging port etc

I wont bother with trying to use an esp32
