Kevr102 made a rainbow show that reveals the time, climate and a personalizable message and shared the construct on Instructables:

My challenge is Rainbow themed, and inside this challenge code I shall be utilizing each the Adafruit GFX and Neo Matrix Libraries in addition to The FastLED Library, which was a problem in itself.

This challenge has NTP Time and an Openweather API so we are able to scroll each the Time and Climate and I’ve added the power so as to add messages as effectively to each the beginning of the show and on the finish.
