Dialing in my smart home controls

Using Home Assistant and the ESPHome firmware, I built a bedside table smart dial that controls the lights in my room in ways not possible with a normal light switch.
The smart dial uses a rotary encoder for controls and an ESP32 to connect to Wi-Fi and send messages to my home automation server. I designed a 3D printed case to keep everything tidy. Physical controls are a great way to make your smart home locally controllable and more useful.
