The one thing I've learned about smart home is if you come up with a cool idea of how to do it DIY, someone's done it similarly and better. Wrote my own code for everything and ended up ditching it all for HomeAssistant.
- antoniomika 10y agoI wish I would've known about that before I started... I went into it with the idea of creating a web interface to control everything, and adding in the voice control was easy because I was already using Google auth for the web interface. If I end up adding support for more things (buying some cheap RF controlled switches and creating a module for that), I might go the route to port everything over.
- nr152522 10y agoI'm doing exactly the same thing. I also use t to turn on control my Xbox and TV. Just turning them on and off for now. It's great :)
