What's net ? How to create automation?

Hi guys!
I found many guides to setup all the system, very detailed but after that I feel lost.
I dont’t know how I can create routines, even where i can write code and how.

As example I’ve a routine on Alexa : “spegni faro” “accendi faro” (turn off and on a light)
I’ve configure everything : alexa mediaplayer plugin etc… and i want to launch a command (routine contoll a zigbee light on echo plus).

I read the plugin description and found a template and modify it:

entity_id: media_player.camera
media_content_id: 'spegni faro'
media_content_type: custom

I’ve try to test (just by trial) in “development tools” area, services and it works.

but now?? How i can create a simple graphic switch? How an i use this? I try to check in overview, add card but i feel lost !!

There is a guide for beginners? An home assistant for dummies?

Ale

I am not quite there yet. But is there any way to take a template and modify it?

Let us know if you find any solution! Many instructions for HA are incomplete and, lol, obviously not written for newbies or even a retard like myself… :wink:
