I picked up a set of Twinkly lights this year and liked them so much I got a few more sets to give as gifts. The API appears to be local network accessible and there are a couple libraries written in python and node for playing around with them.

The mobile app is decent, with a few bugs, but it does include a cool mapping feature to map the layout of lights so the effects work correctly. Definitely would recommend checking them out.

Just got back and set them up. It's not cheap but it's a lot of fun!! My daughter now has a rainbow Christmas tree.

Is the 3D mapping that the app gives you available in the python libs?

Eg. can you put the lights into a tree, get the coordinates with the app, and then continue hacking around with those libraries?
