About

Awesome Home Assistant is a curated list of awesome Home Assistant resources. Additional software, tutorials, custom components, Hassio add-ons, custom Lovelace panels, cookbooks, example setups, and much more.

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, please read the guide.

Why?

Recently, I’ve noticed some behavior of myself. Since I’m on Discord a lot and try to answer questions, many times those questions can be answered with a link. But that link… where was it? So I start searching Google each time that happens, many times for the same thing.

The other day I was watching @DrZzs doing a live stream, and saw him struggling with the same thing. I’ve passed him the links via Discord as quick as possible, to help him out, nevertheless, the same problem.

It dawned on me: A lot of those amazing resources are scattered all over the place! So that’s why I’ve created this (hopefully) awesome central resource for everything Home Assistant related.

Your help is needed!

I’ve ensured the list has some great resources from the get-go, but it needs your help to make it even more awesome!

  • Anything missing on the list?
  • Found something really useful that others might find helpful as well?

Consider contributing this to the list!

Something that might be useful to new users is something that goes through templates. Creating template sensors, and using templates in automatons to save repetitive triggers, action, conditions or provide input to the action based on the trigger.

These are some great features that aren’t really obvious from the docs or an actual use case makes them clearer.

I have thought about adding examples to my repo but haven’t had the time, maybe Ill get on it and provide a link (unless its already been done).

Thank you for your suggestion.
Nevertheless, an awesome list only contains links to other resources.

So if you know some links to guides or tutorials on those subjects, I would be really interested.

I saw this post and thought “Yet another place to look for docs, isn’t it all fragmented enough already”

But I thought too soon, I went there and found a great resource, really succinct but thorough. Well done.

This is great, maybe it will cut down on the situation where you search for something and get 10 ways to do it yet only 2 work because the other ways are outdated.

Thanks!

I know exactly what you mean @thatkide… Reasons for me to create this thing in the first place. In case you do need to search elsewhere… and find something cool, working and shareable: Add it to the list :smiley:

11

Yeah, this is great. There are a few goodies on there that I have not seen before…

Thanks!

That is nice to hear! If you find any goodies that are not on the list yet, I would be very interested :wink:

i find myself returning to this list of cool jijna templates from @skalavala and adapting his templates to the needs.

https://skalavala.github.io/smarthome//jinja/

That is really cool @Mariusthvdb!

Do you know how to open an PR? Since the Awesome list is simple a GitHub repo :slight_smile:

15

not yet, but will have a look.
but only if you allow, since I’ve just found out it is hidden on his github you already have on your list:

https://github.com/skalavala/smarthome/tree/master/jinja_helpers

still, the link I provided might deserve a separate listing? let me know and Ill see what I can do :wink:

btw, would you care for a list of online code checkers? I’d be interested to find these collected on a central place, your list might be the place start. Yaml, python, json, jinja would be a few that could use some collected checkers, be cool to see who uses which?
