    Z-Wave JS UI - Home Assistant Community Add-ons

  • We’ve also been planning to start using a couple of Z-Wave devices and I think now is the time to finally do so. As part of this, I’m thinking I’ll use the Z-Wave JS to MQTT add-on. It won’t surprise me any at all if I need to try a few different times to get things just right.

  • zigbee2mqtt

    Zigbee 🐝 to MQTT bridge 🌉, get rid of your proprietary Zigbee bridges 🔨

  • One planned change in particular might be the cause of some redos: I’m going to be switching from ZHA (Zigbee Home Automation) to Zigbee2MQTT (z2m). Though I’ve used both before, I didn’t discover z2m until after I’d set everything up at home. I like it a lot more and think I’ll put it to use as part of the redo.

  • Home Assistant

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

  • As expected, there were a variety of opinions. Surprisingly though, there was an overwhelming consensus that redos after having used Home Assistant for a whe were a good thing.

  • Node RED

    Low-code programming for event-driven applications

  • screenshotting and exporting all of my Node-RED flows
