TOP 10 HACS Integrations and Frontend Components in Home Assistant

[@mostlychris]

After publishing this video, someone reached out to me to clarify the "Add-Ons". I mentioned this in the blog but may have not said it in the video or wasn't clear. HACS does not provide add-ons. They provide integrations, custom cards, custom templates, etc. This is not to be confused with the actual add-on store in Home Assistant. Wanted to make that clear. This page also calls this out: hacs.xyz/docs/faq/addons/

Excellent intro for an HA rookie. Thanks Chris.

[@rodneysmith1750]

Thanks for listening and sharing Chris.

I really appreciate your content Chris. I noticed watching this video that you have a tab on your dashboard for 'pilot stuff'. As I'm also a pilot I'm curious to know what pilot related things you have in HA. Maybe an idea for a future video?

Nice, thanks Chris, a couple of great suggestions for my next HA projects… I will definitely look into the Uptime Kuma HACS integration, that might just be what I need to get the regular flood of alerts under control… Small comment on pronunciation of “Blitzortung”: It’s pronounced something like „Blitz - or - tong“ (not „blitzer - tung“ 😉).

Thank you Chris. What cameras are you using?

Great video .. BUT i did not find THEM or Lovelace in HACS ... ?

[@SmartHomeJunky]

Thanks for sharing your add-ons! I've been trying to do something similar to your conditional card for your doors etc. Would you be willing to share the yaml for one of your doors like your garage or something?

How are you filling the background on your button cards based on values? Looks like temperatures?

[@d_sellers1]

If you're referring to the cards labeled Outside, Feels, & Humidity, those are bignumber cards. Chris mentions it @ 13:00.

Hi Chris, I found the weather card very interesting but I'm not able to synchronize the sunrise/sunset with my timezone (-5)

[@chnillapoil0150]

Found the problem: my home was in Amsterdam in general settings in HA

[@johnb2271]

Chris, when I go to HA in my iPad and go to settings, Devices, integrations, add integration and search for HACS, nothing shows up. I have a Github account, but logging in there was no help.

Thanks for your vid and tips! Can you please share your big number card configuration for your big number card with Blitzortung's entities lightning counter and distance? Don't know why, but I fail heavily. Thanks!

Is there a way to get embed code from ip cams?

[@michalrog84]

as usual - great content

[@vette5808]

HI; Is there a way to get embed code for live streaming of a ip cam? Already have ip cam running in picture glass card. Great source of information on your channel....f

Thanks, but how do I install HACS in my home assistant?

[@IAmZen_007]

Strange question, it’s mentioned in the video …

[@micware2]

Fun and informative video. Can you explain how you made the conditional work for uptime Kuma sensors. a few hints are probably enough. or maybe a nice topic for a new video :-)

[@antonmevan]

Please create a video how to add google home via Hacks"Home Assistant Google Home community integration"

[@maferr6404]

Show the noonlight integration.

[@Whatarewefixingtoday]

There are 0 (ZERO) addons in HACS. None... Remember the setup where it says "I realize there are no add-ons in HACS" and you had to check the box? Mistakes like this cause big problems to the people that are trying to help people on forums and Discord. Custom Integrations, Themes, Cards, Custom Templates, Lots of good stuff... NO Add-ons...
