I started with home assistant then moved to node red. Both have rich communities and plugins. If you want to do more javascript, use node red.

  I've really enjoyed using node-red together with Home Assistant. Home Assistant manages the connections to devices and allows me to set up a nice UI, while node-red allows me to do more complex automation logic. node-red is available as a hass.io add-on [1], with the Home Assistant node-red plugin pre-installed [1]: https://github.com/hassio-addons/addon-node-red https://github.com/hassio-addons/addon-node-red
