Show HN: How to make your own glowing notification cube (opens in new tab)

> After creating the first prototype I realized a number of things. While it was cool there wasn’t enough utility to justify creating another one. The only way I could have figured that out is by making and using this prototype for several months.

I did something similar with LEDs [not a cube, just a board with lights] to alert on various things before just having the Pi power an old wall mounted LCD I wasn't using anymore + a dashboard.

It is one of those ideas that is awesome in theory but its really hard to justify the time/effort beyond "FUN!"

the design of your website is incredible! a little hard to navigate around however, how did you build the cube animation in the top?

"If you’re constantly willing to learn and adapt you can make anything."

This looks like a great first project to get introduced to some basic electronics, thanks for sharing.
