Automate what no one thought possible

Your smart home can do more than you think

Simple ≠ Useful

If you've ever struggled with YAML’s rigid syntax, spent hours debugging automations or wished you could seamlessly integrate AI into your smart home, you're not alone.

Traditional Home Assistant automations are great if you keep things simple, but it’s difficult when you want to create a sophistcated flow to meet your needs:
Hard to debug – Difficult to handle and manipulate entities and data structures.
Difficult to scale – Managing dozens of automations in YAML quickly becomes unmanageable.
Limited without custom development – Unlocking advanced features often requires installing new integrations or using custom python code.
AI-unfriendly – Integrating modern AI tools takes extra effort and technical know-how.

There’s a better way. Meet Node-RED.

I will show you how to supercharge Home Assistant with Node-RED, a free visual automation tool that can be installed in or out of Home assistant:
Build automations with drag-and-drop simplicity – No more YAML headaches.
Leverage AI and powerful web APIs – Easily integrate GPT, image recognition, and more.
Debug automations effortlessly – See real-time data flows and quickly troubleshoot issues.
Scale automations with ease – Keep things modular and manageable.
Use JavaScript & JSON instead of YAML & Python – More power, more flexibility.
Run automations in parallel – Use powerful control flow mechanisms to combine and orchestrate automations effortlessly.
Access everything Home Assistant can – Any integration Home Assistant uses in its automations, Node-RED can leverage too.

By far, the best part of the course are the AI modules. But I definitely liked the depth you went into explain each of the nodes.

A cheat code for infinite potential

There is no upper-limit when using Node-RED. Here’s a true story: I needed a way to connect my smart home to a note-taking app. I initially chose Notion because Node-RED could read, write and search my Notion docs. It even enabled me to trigger automations right within the app - making it the first of their kind! There were no forums or tutorials for this, but Node-RED made it possible.

Then lightning struck twice

I replicated the same functionality in Obsidian. No plugins. No tutorials. No integrations. Just me, Node-RED, and the broken glass ceiling.

That’s the beauty of Node-RED: it’s not just about working with what’s available—it’s about creating what’s not possible. Node-RED removes the limits imposed by devices and platforms. You don’t need to wait for updates to enable support. You can do it yourself right now. Take control over your smart home and do more with home assistant.
