+##############################
+
+Overview
+********
+
+The `Adafruit 5x5 NeoPixel Grid BFF`_ is a 5x5 grid of WS2812B RGB LEDs,
+which Adafruit refers to as "neopixels". The BFF series of shields are
+designed to be compatible with any Adafruit Qt Py or Seed Studio Xiao
+board.

+Pin Assignments
+===============
+
++-----------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+| Shield Connector Pin  | Function                                    |
++=======================+=============================================+
+| A3                    | WS2812B driver pin [1]_                     |
++-----------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+
+.. [1] This is the default pin when the board is delivered as is by Adafruit.
+       It can be changed away from the default using the onboard solder jumpers,
+       but this shield will no longer work without a matching device tree update.
+
+Programming
