I have just found this

WS2812 is a LED Package 5050 with an digital chip inside.
On an LED stripe you can controll every single led in a other colour.
You can also control it direct from the ESP8266

It’s a cool LED, I use it to give a visual feedback when my heater is turned on/off

The code was running on a arduino but I tested it on an ESP and it worked just as good.
