Absolutely. I've been using Home Assistant for around 6 years now and it's absolutely amazing for tying hardware from varying ecosystems together.

Even if your hardware doesn't support local APIs, there's a good chance someone has made an HA integration to talk to their cloud API.

And if they haven’t, you can pretty trivially write your own and distribute it through HACS (I’ve got three integrations in HACS and one in mainline now)

Thank you for your contributions btw! There is so much amazing work that's gone into HA and I appreciate it every day.

Thanks, but it really is a community effort. Even the one I wrote the most of was still me and another guy (the Lucid Motors integration).

I'd love to see what's needed to get some of these integrations in core!
