How do YOU write Automations (a poll)

I’m trying to determine the most popular ways to write Automations for Home Assistant. While I’m pretty sure that “Home Assistant Automations” in their various formats will be the most popular, I’m largely interested in the ratio between Native Automations and the other options.

If you MOSTLY write them with, say, YAML, but have played with the Automations UI a few times, there’s no need to check Automations UI. Similarly, if you do most of your work in AppDaemon, but have a few simple automations in YAML, there’s no need to check YAML.

So, how do YOU write Automations? You can select multiple options.

  • Home Assistant Automations UI
  • Home Assistant Automations in YAML
  • AppDaemon
  • python_script
  • pyscript
  • Node-RED
  • NetDaemon
  • Something Else (comment with a link)

Once reddit catches wind, node-red will skyrocket… so many drank the cool aide there.
