Hi! I've been working on a library for controlling RGB LEDs on embedded devices and would love to get feedback before publishing to crates.io.

What is it?

rgb-sequencer is a no_std-compatible library that lets you define high-level color animations for RGB LEDs instead of manually managing timers and color interpolation.

Key Features

• Zero heap allocation - Uses fixed-capacity collections with compile-time sizing
• Two animation approaches :
  • Step-based: Define color waypoints with durations (blinks, fades, cycles)
  • Function-based: Mathematical animations (sine waves, procedural patterns)
• Pause/resume with timing compensation - Perfect timing continuity
• Multi-LED control - Independent animations per LED
• Platform-agnostic - LED control and timing abstracted through traits

What I'm looking for feedback on

• API design - Is it intuitive? Ergonomic? Any footguns?
• Documentation - Is it clear? Missing important info?
• Use cases - Am I missing features that would be valuable?
• Code quality - Any safety issues, performance concerns, or Rust anti-patterns?
• General impressions - Would you use this? What would stop you?

Repository: GitHub - HybridChild/rgb-sequencer

The README has a bunch of examples including function-based sequences, multi-LED control, and integration with Embassy (async runtime).

Thanks for any feedback!
