Hello from Pontefract UK - Home Assistant beginner

Hi everyone!

I’m Luke from Pontefract in the UK. I’ve recently started getting properly into Home Assistant after years of tinkering with smart home stuff.

I’m currently running Home Assistant on a Dell PC and using mostly Tapo devices, with a Zigbee dongle on the way. I’ve also been learning a bit of CMD and Python and I’m interested in local AI projects and building my own smart devices in the future.

I’m still very much learning but I’m looking forward to seeing everyone’s setups, ideas and automations.

I’d especially love to hear from anyone else in the UK running Home Assistant, Tapo devices or local smart home setups, and I’m always interested in hearing about new projects and ideas.

Thanks for having me!

Luke (Techdad)
