I guess my approach is boring then. I replaced most of the switches with z-wave switches, added a Vera controller, added an echo dot and now it all can be managed using a browser or a phone or voice(this turned out to be greater than i expected). It's all UL certified and wired to local code so my insurer should be happy.

Of course you can do it that way also. I developed an app for working with Fibaro system last year, it works with z-wave. Also is possible to buy a z-wave module for raspberry pi, but then you have to buy z-wave devices. My approach is cheaper, and also help me to learn.
