Smart Home Devices are awesome! But problems arise when you have too many that all use their own app. So in this video I am reactivating my home assistant server on my Raspberry and more importantly create an awesome dashboard screen. And No! I will not use a tablet. I will build something custom with another Raspberry Pi ;-) Let's get started!
