What language is HA Lambda function?

Simple question, what language is HA Lambda Function? I’ve googled around and can’t seem to find any documentation on it. Anyone have sources?

I have 10 pathway lights I want to create a random “firefly” effect for with the lights turning on/off in random sequence and spacing. This feels much easier to achieve with some programming in a lambda.

ESPHome ?

It’s pretty much C++.

Lambda’s In HomeAssistant.

Kind of moot now because I just found out you can write a Python Script and execute it as a service ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I didn’t know Home Assistant had a lambda function. Got a link to its documents?

Well if @tom_l doesn’t know it exists then it most definitely doesn’t exists! I must have been confusing posts I saw with ESPHome

I’ll be the first to admit I don’t know everything which was why I was genuinely interested.

I don’t believe you Tom!!! Sometimes I’m not sure you’re human, or just one human, because you answer every question on here :slight_smile:

Follow up - I was confused, lambda function only exists on ESP Home. And in any case I was able to solve my need with a python script in HA.
