I know it’s not sold as an official wing accessory in the Particle store, but has anyone tried a NeoPixel FeatherWing with any of the new Mesh boards? A previous project I was using a Photon with the NeoPixel Ring designed for it. The shift to mesh would be helpful. Just curious if that wing would work with minimal effort.

It definitely looks like it would be compatible with Particle Mesh.

It looks like it would use pin D3 by default, but you can connect a jumper to change the pin:
