Awesome Home Assistant 
Home Assistant is open source home automation that puts local control and
privacy first. It works with thousands of devices out of the box, runs on
your own hardware, and does not require any coding to set up. Whether you
are automating a single room or an entire house, everything stays local
and private.
Curious what it looks like? Try the
Home Assistant online demo.
Awesome Home Assistant is a curated list of the best
Home Assistant resources: custom
integrations, dashboard cards, themes, apps, tutorials, and much more.
Most of the items below can be installed in one click through
HACS, the Home Assistant Community Store, after you
install Home Assistant itself. Home Assistant is owned by the
Open Home Foundation, which also
stewards ESPHome, Music Assistant, Z-Wave JS, and the open voice tools you
will see throughout the list. If you are buying smart-home devices, the
Works with Home Assistant program
tests for privacy, local control, and long-term support.
The list is divided into categories. The links in those categories do not have
pre-established order; the order is for contribution. If you want to contribute,

How to use
Awesome Home Assistant is a curated list of the best resources for Home
Assistant. Use it to find apps, custom cards, integrations, and tutorials
that the community recommends, whether you are just getting started or
looking for your next project.
You can navigate through the list by:
Installing
New to Home Assistant and not sure where to start? The easiest path is to
grab a Home Assistant Green and plug
it in. If you would rather use hardware you already own (a Raspberry Pi, a
Mini PC, an old laptop), the official guides below cover every option.
Whichever you pick, you end up running the same Home Assistant. Once it is
up, install HACS and most of the items in this list
become one click away.
In case you need help
Stuck on a configuration, wondering why a device will not pair, or just
want to see what other people are building? Home Assistant has one of the
most active home-automation communities on the internet, and most of it
is free to join. The official channels are below; further down you will
find communities in your language and around specific projects from the
wider ecosystem.
🤝 Official Communities
🌍 In your language
Communities in languages other than English. Multiple groups can exist per language; add yours via a pull request. Sorted alphabetically by language.
Discords, forums, and chats run by community projects you will see elsewhere on this list. Sorted alphabetically by project.
Independent groups not tied to a specific language or project.
