Next thing you know, you're learning how to flash ESP firmware and how Zigbee protocols work.
The cool factor is maybe 25% of it for me. It's mainly an obsessive hobby.
- tharne 3y agoI'm not a fan of Smart Homes, but I can appreciate this take on it. Making it all work is the cool part - everything else is just a side effect.
- squeaky-clean 3y agoIt's such a fun hobby, and easy to jump into with just knowledge of nodejs or web-dev based Python. It was my first serious foray into working with any kind of hardware at all. And you're entirely right it's an unstoppable gateway to learning how to code arduino's and then esp32's, and then eventually hardware projects that aren't even smart home related.
