I use a wide mix of ESP-WROOM-32, Lolin ESP-32-OLED (when I want on-board display), and all sorts of other random ones.

For all my home automation I use ESPHome and Home Assistant (20+ custom devices, plus however many light bulbs and Sonoffs and stuff).

For tool chain I personally use Platform.IO in VSCode but I’ve done a fair few with Arduino IDE and it works in a pinch.

Would you mind sharing some of the Home Assistant projects you’ve built? I have some ESP32-CAMs coming and plan to setup a cat box monitor.
Not the person you’re replying to, but I’ve built a battery voltage monitor (to alert if my home generator battery is discharging) and am working on temperature monitors for my BBQ and oven! Those have been left on accidentally in the past
