A fun and playful lamp to match the energy of GitHub Copilot. It's 3d printable, fairly easy to assemble, WiFi connected and powered by WLED and touch!

This project was inspired by the original Octolamp. Go check it out!

If you received your lamp prebuilt, is has already been configured and is ready to use. Simply plug it in with a USB cable and power brick with at least 1 amp. The lamp will turn on with an "aurura" like green effect.
