## Description

Spotlight Storage (formerly MIMOSA) is a self-hosted inventory management system for organizing parts and components. It integrates with ESP32 devices running WLED firmware to control addressable LED strips (WS2812) that light up to show the physical location of items in storage bins. Features include item search, categorization with tags, multiple storage locations across different rooms (only Wi-Fi needed), image uploads for items, and a web interface accessible on port 5000. The system runs via Docker or Docker Compose with a SQLite database, and a Windows installer script is also provided. The project is open source under the MIT license.
