Button pin: 2
Neopixel (WS2812) pin: 10
Im working on a project for my kid, but i am a noob when it comes to programming, so hope someone can help me get started at least 
Hope this image explains what i want to happen:
What is your question?
Do you try to code this?
Please show us your efforts.
I need help to get started as i have no experience with programming.
I tried explaining in the picture what i want to have happen.
But i realize now that the picture might give the impression that there are several LED strips, but there is only one. The numbers below the LED strips in the image is a timeline of sorts.
I have not started programming yet as i dont know how to start, and i dont have the time to learn Arduino from scratch....
Sorry, we don't write complete sketches from scratch for free here. It's a self help forum.
You can get started by downloading a Neo library like FastLED and playing with a pixel strip using it. You can learn from the example sketches that are provided.
what's the hurry? This is a hobby forum where people do it for fun. No deadlines
If you can't solve it right now - sit down and read - in a week or ... months everything will work out
Im just asking for guidance, maybe a hint to what to search for that puts me in the right direction, so this project doesn't take years and years...
How much would it cost to program something like this?
as said in post #4 - start from examples to FastLED or NeoPixel libraries
How much would it cost to program something like this?
please move your question to the "Jobs and Paid Consultancy" category.
How do i move it?
Your topic have been moved to the suitable category
Thanks, appreciate it
The cost is heavily dependent on the clarity and completeness of the problem specification. Any back and forth about what it means or what it should do, will exponentially increase the work hours. You really only want to be paying for programming time, not help hammering out a requirements document.
Your image is close but leaves out some details like exact number of LEDs, what processor is used, exact time intervals and so on. It's a good start but needs some fleshing out.
Some of it is kind of "hmmm". Like "Emidiately (sic) after button is pressed, but this time i don't release the button"... well what happens if you do release the button? See?
@Webca55 I have pm'ed you
may be this can give some ideas to get started (it works in the Serial monitor)
