I moved all my automation from HA to Node Red about 8 months ago and can't imagine switching back. I had a few advanced automation scripts written in yaml and Jinja2, which were really difficult to get right in the first place, and then annoying to maintain and worse to debug.
Node-Red isn't perfect, but it's far better, in my opinion. Also it's great to be able to watch the automation step through in the UI while debugging and tweaking things.
HA is an excellent hub for getting everything to talk to everything else and their recent updates to the z-wave integration, especially allowing me to name entities in the UI makes it really powerful for me. Their list of hardware and API integrations is mind-blowing to me. I just _really_ don't enjoy the way they went about scripting automation.
