kube-config VS MHI-AC-Ctrl

Compare kube-config vs MHI-AC-Ctrl and see what are their differences.

    Helm is an absolute mess in my experience.

    I'm using zigbee2mqtt in K8s and just pinning the deployment to a node and mapping the device as a volume: https://github.com/LukeChannings/kube-config/blob/3b61c7607c...

    Should work the same for Home Assistant, but I don't use HA for Zigbee directly, instead using z2m -> MQTT -> HA, which I've found to be very robust.

    I'm waiting for a new K8s cluster (based on CM4) and when I re-implement all of this I'll get a network-based PoE Zigbee device (https://smlight.tech/manual/slzb-06/), that way I can un-pin the deployment and look at high availability Zigbee via MQTT (something Home Assistant doesn't support)

    I run ArgoCD (which has been great), and keep all of my definitions (and encrypted secrets) in a public GitHub repo.

    Now I run k3s and use Argocd + git and everything is great, honestly. https://github.com/LukeChannings/kube-config

    Yep, I'm relatively new to Home Assistant but love it. Combined with ESPHome, I've got most of the lights in my house controlled (via switch changes, not smart bulbs), and my all my air conditioners via the MHI-AC-Ctrl project[1,2] (which is fantastic - ordered the boards from JLC-PCB, parts from Ali-Express, told ESPHome to program everything and plugged them into the ports and...it all just worked!).

    Just got a Mitsubishi Electric (which is different to MHI) and a Daikin at my parents house to get online - but code for both exists and I suspect the MHI boards can be reprogrammed to fulfill the role without any hardware changes.

    It's incredible that the future we wanted in like, 2010 can be had and had without selling your soul to the cloud: I can leave the house, and turn off all my lights and AC's while walking out the door, or get notified if I've left my garage open - without a single cloud provider dependency, all open-source.
