I was struggling on creating custom code for these Led matrix modules. I have shared what I ended up with for others to use as needed.

This doesnt use Framework’s library but rather connects and handles direct to the module’s serial connection.

Your python programs are for an “RGB” module. They do not work with the RGB ones I have. Where did you get RGB models of these? The official Framework ones are only white.

This does work perfectly fine with the framework offical white modules but I had been playing with some 3d printed modules with hand soldered rgb leds. They dont look pretty but was going to work towards a custom board but have not had time
