What happens when you combine Mac automation with smart home automation? You get the ultimate smart home office. One that easily lights your video meetings, tells your family you're recording, monitors air quality, and puts live security camera feeds right next to your desk. In this tour, I'll walk through my Stream Deck, Keyboard Maestro, Homey flows, and the Aqara, IKEA, Lutron, and UniFi gear that makes it all work.
