Wow, just found out this forum existed, this is great! Feels like my work is a little redundant now but oh well.
Anyway, my friend with no technical experience recently decided to start her own smart home journey, so I made her a guide of how to do 5 common smart home automations. I’ve seen a lot of similar questions come up on the homeassistant subreddit (motion lights, away mode, etc), so I figured I might as well clean it up and share it in case it’s helpful to anyone else.
It’s very beginner-friendly and focused on stuff that actually gets used.
Would love feedback, and if there are other kinds of guides people want, I’m happy to make more
