Home Assistant Green is an attempt to make the onboarding part easier for everyone.
The $ 99 device has 32GB eMMC storage preloaded with Home Assistant’s platform.
It's a more affordable and much easier entryway for people who want to dip their feet in the water without having to flash a memory card from another PC.
Home Assistant is the second most active open-source project on GitHub .
It celebrates its 10th birthday today with the launch of the Green smart hub.
The project was founded by former UCSD student Peter Schoutsen .
He started the project after getting an expensive set of Hue bulbs and hitting a wall with what they would let him do.
Home Assistant Green is sold on being seductively easy and inviting at the cost of being closed, insecure, and invasive.
I hope more people get into running Home Assistant , into open-source software, and ultimately about having total control over a truly “smart” home.
