Watt's The Connection

An interactive LED wiring tool that turns complex hardware setups into clear visual diagrams.

Role: Design & Dev · Client: Beautiful Engine · Location: LA

Overview

A single-file web application that helps makers and LED enthusiasts configure power supplies, controllers, and LED strips, then generates a live SVG wiring diagram with compatibility checking, bill of materials, WLED configuration output, and cost estimation. Built entirely as one self-contained HTML file with glassmorphism UI, dark/light mode, progressive sidebar unlock flow, and per-component compatibility badges rendered directly in the diagram.

The challenge

LED wiring is confusing. Voltage mismatches, amperage overloads, and wrong controllers brick expensive hardware. Could one tool eliminate the guesswork?

The approach

Single-file HTML/CSS/JS with no dependencies. SVG diagram generation, real-time compatibility validation, and a progressive disclosure UI that guides users step by step from power supply to controller to strips.
