I am preparing to nuke my current Home Assistant server and start from scratch on a fixed desktop. On my initial install many moons ago, I had issues getting Home Assistant to discover my Hue hub. I Googled around a bit and found Phue and manualled installed it. Bingo, Hue lights are discovered, so far so good.
My Qs.: Do I need to bother with Phue if I am doing a virgin install and config of HASS with the newest versions?
Is it already rolled in component included in the install?
If I add an Emulated Hue component to my HASS for Alexa support, do I have to specify/configuration of 2 Hues so they do not conflict? (Last time I tried this, my router no longer recognized my physical Hue hub, only the virtual emulated one.)
Should I also shitcan adding Pywemo to the mix? (ie. Is that also something baked-in to the newer versions of HASS?)
