Got one of these a couple years ago because it integrated directly into my Rachio sprinkler controller. It’s been fantastic and has saved so much water use that would otherwise go to waste overwatering my yard.

Great video as always! I appreciate all your effort learning all this stuff and putting it together. Also, you forgot to blur your location starting at 13:24.

Here is my dashboard idea. Using an ultra-wide monitor, the background is streamed in the background. The lower third of the screen has a gradient that has each sensor card displayed.

Smart Home Sense would be a great name

Is the website logon the same as the app logon? I can’t seem to use my app logon on the site. Wondering if anyone else has seen a workaround. Thanks for the video!

Extremely useful video! I pretty comfortable with code (30+ years in development), but new to homeassistant and was able to got most of this up and running from the video - so thanks!. My one struggle has been with the configuration code for the weather_forecast sensor. From what I can gather the syntax may have changed in how template, trigger, and platform are declared with time pattern. Either that or I'm way off on something. -platform: time_pattern is the first issue. ("string does not match the pattern of legacy syntax") and I've read in the forums about "old way" vs "new way" syntax with platform being no longer necessary?
Any suggestions?

How about "My Smart Opinion" for a name
