Home Assistant Docker Guide 2024

I have been slowly working to take more control over devices in my house, and a big step to that was moving to Home Assistant. It can be a little painful if you already have a lot of smart devices, because not everything works perfectly, and in some cases you still need to use the manufacturer’s app along with Home Assistant. I have been slowly converting devices, and when I add new ones it is really easy to check compatibility on the Home Assistant website.

All of the below items I use myself, I have received no money to include these here, however the links to Amazon in this guide provide a commission. For most of the items if you just search the name on Amazon you can find them without my links - but the commission does not impact the cost of the item and helps support this channel. Thanks!

SONOFF Zigbee Dongle
Great for adding Zigbee devices

Shelly Plugs:

ReoLink Doorbell Camera:
Love this doorbell. I still use the ReoLink app for this as they are more privacy focused. However they do have an integration which I will cover.

ReoLink 180 Degree Camera:
Same as above - works great and there is an integration

BeeLink MiniPC
I use something like this for my Home Assistant host, but it is not necessarily required if you already have a server or something you can host it on.
