Tools for Home Assistant and Zigbee, and devices tested on a real network.
I build free, open-source tools for Home Assistant, mostly around Zigbee, and review smart-home devices
for people who'd rather know how something behaves before they buy it. This is the home for all of it.
Projects
ZHA Bindings Manager
Home Assistant integration and card · in HACS
See, check and manage Zigbee direct bindings in ZHA: a map of what controls what, guided setup for remotes,
lost bindings noticed and put back, and swapping a device without losing what it was bound to.
What Zigbee devices really support, per firmware, from scans shared by their owners, plus answers about how
they behave in daily use. Free for anyone to use, whatever Zigbee system they run.
One place to look after the lights in Home Assistant: organise them by room, spot the ones that need
attention, and replace a light without breaking the automations and dashboards that use it.
Each device is tested on my own Home Assistant network, in daily use: pairing, what it really
supports (scanned and shared to the database above, so anyone can check), direct binding, and how it behaves day
to day.
Questions about a project are best asked on GitHub or in the forum thread, so others can
find the answer too. For anything else, including review requests:
