In this video, I will walk you through a home assistant setup on a Windows 10 PC. No Raspberry Pi is needed for this installation. Home assistant on Windows 10 is a great way to test out the functionality in your home before committing to the environment.

Everything I earn goes right back into creating videos. Thanks to my previous donors, I was able to purchase a GPU for mining explanation videos. Currently, I'm saving for a Mining Rig or Smart Home device. Let me know what direction you want me to go when you donate. Once I get to $1K, I will tally votes and provide an update.
