no cap, that's the whole signature, copied exactly, spaces and all, i don't make the rules 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • hw β€” pointer to the HW structure πŸ’– that's your hardware bestie right there
  • data β€” pointer to the NVM (EEPROM) 🌸 the lil memory chip energy

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so here's the tea β˜• β€” this function reads the EEPROM for the current default LED configuration. literally just goes and looks at what's already there πŸ‘€
