The end of the year approaches and for me it often means spending more time improving my Home Assistant setup than any other time of the year.
To help me learn to use the major new features released in 2025 I compiled them in a MindMap with links to the position in the demo video on Youtube. “Major feature” is defined by me as featuring on the thumbnail of the release party videos or just being the top and first feature demoed from the release.
I did this for myself but thought maybe someone here is also interested in this summary. Also, as a subscriber to Home Assistant Cloud, it’s nice to see what some of my subscription money and hardware purchases is being used for.
Happy holidays!
