Message to Govee

We all love your products but unfortunately there is no public API. Thus, we cannot control the devices we have purchased in our own smart home environments. I have created this library so that I can control my devices easily without the Govee app and to help others doing this. Nobody wants to harm you, your server infrastructure or anything or anybody else. In case you cannot accept my code to be public, please send me an e-mail to [e-mail] and I will immediately shut down this repository and will delete all artifacts from PyPi.
