GoKawiilRaspberry Pi Turns Into Free Home Assistant Smart-Home Hub
Home Assistant, a free open-source smart home platform with over 1,500 device integrations, officially supports installation on the Raspberry Pi 4 and 5, requiring at least 2GB RAM and a 32GB microSD card. The software carries no subscription or feature paywall, though add-ons like cloud remote access are optional paid extras. Once installed, users can automate their homes based on triggers like location, power usage, NFC tags, or device state changes.
