Home Assistant Amber is a smart home hub for the free, open source home automation platform. | Nabu Casa Home Assistant, the powerful-yet-prickly smart home automation platform, is finally moving toward the mainstream. Nabu Casa, the company behind the free, open-source software, has launched Home Assistant Yellow, its first ready-to-use hub that can run Home Assistant software out of the box.
