Adafruit NeoPXL8 FeatherWing for Feather M4 - 8 x DMA NeoPixels!

Since we first started carrying NeoPixels back in 2012, the chainable RGB LEDs have taken over the world. And a big part of that success is due to the simplicity of their wiring - just one data wire, no matter how many pixels you've got.
