On the taste and color: gradations of approaches to the Smart home


Today I will be Captain Obviousness and I will tell you trivial things in relation to the topic of home automation, aka β€œSmart Home”. For what? To show beginners how deep the rabbit hole hiding under this name, and to ease (or complicate) the torment of choice in a particular case. This is not a direct trodden road, but a branching path when you have to choose what to do and where to go.


In the approaches cited, extremes are indicated, but there is no need to immediately rush into them - you need to look for a compromise, a middle ground. In addition to the listing, I share my opinion - in favor of which I made a choice myself.


β€œSam - Professionals”


Do it yourself (DIY) is a very popular approach when someone who lives in this house thinks about automation.
