  • You can add other npm modules using this same process to make your life a little easier when writing custom functions and is much easier than developing a custom module. Some potentially handy modules might be: date-fns, mathjs, cheerio, execa.

  • Home Assistant

    :house_with_garden: Open source home automation that puts local control and privacy first.

  • Node Red is a fantastic, open source, "low code" automation framework. I have been using it for years as the automation engine for Home Assistant as well as a few other tasks. If you're coding-inclined, you can use Node Red's function nodes to run whatever JavaScript you want. Today I'm going to show you how to use these function nodes to run browser automation tasks using Playwright or Puppeteer.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc.
