    Great video. I've often wondered about the difference between devices, entities and so on. Thanks a lot.

    I have been stumbling my way through Home assistant for about 1.5 YRS now. I have accomplished some great things mainly from reading forums and watching videos. Your video is very well made. I enjoy when all options are discussed/explained. I want to know all I can about everything there is, so I can apply that knowledge later. Keep the videos coming and never hold back information. There are so many people that touch on a topic and don't do a deep dive. Thank You. I will definitely check out your online course!

      Hi tpm369! Thanks for your feedback :) My main goal is to empower people to build automation not really to teach a particular thing. If you learn the concepts then the imagination is your limit

    Hey Gio, just posted this video to someone in the HA Facebook group who seemed a little unclear on entities vs devices. I really like how you break this down. You gave me a lot of confidence when I was getting started, so hope this helps someone else!

    Thanks so much. Awesome overview. I think for the trigger vs condition part, you want to check if it's dark every time you sense motion, but not check if there's motion when it becomes dark. The trigger determines when the automation checks conditions.

    • @SmartHomeMakers
      @SmartHomeMakers  2 года назад

      You can have an automation turning on when it becomes dark even if nobody is in the room or at home. That would be a waste :)

    Thanks great video, for organization purposes do we organize entity IDs or friendly names? so it does not become one big mess.

    • @SmartHomeMakers
      @SmartHomeMakers  2 года назад +1

      Entity IDs are really important, it is great to rename them as soon as possible. As changing the name will break things within HA.

    Where would you recommend someone go to get the next level technical details of what you described here?
    I.e. class definitions and APIs?

    Brilliant video. I really needed to understand the syntax and archictecture of HA. Im still surprised they used the term "Entities" to describe what a device does. That nomencalture was so confusing without context.

      @@SmartHomeMakers Although this may not be the right video for what I'm going to ask, but I don't know where else to do it.
      There will not be a way to make a video explaining how to create advanced automations, without Node-Red, and only with the default HA automations, in which you can ask, for example:
      That a motion sensor turns on a light when it detects motion, in addition,
      depending on the time of day, set the brightness to the following values ​​(day: 95%, night: 50%, bedtime: 15%), but only if it is dark (lux
