LED birthday present

Hey guys, ive been planning on gifting my parents a custom led interior for their car. Turns out, its more complicated than I thought it would be, so I´m asking if anyone here is willing to help me. I want to control the effects/ colors over a numpad. Anyhelp is appreciated.
Ive already constructed a circuit, but I need help coding.
In the best case, the numpad should set the numbers for the rgb of the strip and one button to cycle through different effects

Thanks for your help

You will get plenty of help here if you post your best attempt and detail any problems that you have

First you need to describe exactly what you are trying to do and the hardware that you are using

Hello
Did you already check the WWW for this type of project?
Take a view here.

Cruel and unusual punishment

alright, do you think this is enough information?

Do you mean is this Fritzing picture enough information ?


If so, then not really. Fritzing drawings are not generally well received in the forum, but it is a start

What code have you tried so far ?
Have you looked at and tried the Keypad library examples ?
Are the LEDs Neopixels (or the equivalent) and have you got them working ?
What effects do you want to output ?
How many LEDs are there in the project ?
How is the project, particularly the LEDs, to be powered ?

Do your parents know that you are making this for them ?
How will the project be built when you present it to them, surely not on a breadboard

thanks for your response.

The led strips are going to be the ws2812b ones, 5m, 300 Leds in total.
I want the numpad to determine the colors for the stripe, and maybe something like a rainbow wave, etc. For power, I intended to use a powerbank or the lighter in the middle console

Which library are you intending to use, FastLED perhaps. Have you looked at and tried any examples ?
