Getting Started With Home Assistant In 2024: The Ultimate Guide
In this video I'll take you through the process of setting Home Assistant up on a Raspberry Pi. I’ll also cover the basics when it comes to automations, integrations and dashboards, *and* go over my must-have add-ons. Trust me, it’s not as hard as you think it is.
Was trying real hard not to crack 20 minutes on this one but there was simply too much to cover and I wasn't able to fit it all into a shorter video. Hopefully it's still helpful for you all!
Questions? Let me know in the comments, and I'll be happy to help you out.

thats cool idea ，use pie as Gateway
Well done Jimmy you doing great!
Great video and very well explained! Watching this and following along I was able to get my Raspberry Pi4 up and running with no issues. Thank you!
How did you hide the menu, next to the dashboard?
I have QA, how to open full scrren the HA system in tablet ?
Looks like Wall Panel was taken down from the Amazon Appstore. Can't find it
First person that has been honest about HA. "It ain't always going to be easy", "know what you're getting into", "It's not for the faint of heart at all". Problem is, you don't realize any of these facts until AFTER money is spent. Wish I would have seen your video before all the others.
What camera do you use?
Quick question, HomePod integration I know your can use Apple TV integration but I having a lot of problems with them showing up or not found on network any tips ?
Hi Jimmy, thanks for sharing your dashboard. I tried today install the dashboard on my HA but I'm facing the issue when I select the new dashboard. I'm receiving the message “custom element doesn’t exist grid layout", could you try to help me on it, please?
Your explanations are truly fantastic! Thank you!
Which generation/year Fire10? do you use the fire toolbox on it to remove some of the amazon extras?
Dude.......... Those nails.
Not headphone friendly. Constant low frequency banging sound.
Hey there, I'm totally new to this stuff and I have a question, should every device need to connect to home assistant or only the bridge or only the hub? it's very confusing to me. I just can't find someone who really puts all the devices together in a TH-cam video
Somewhat a newbie to HA but managed to get the dashboard working (awesome video btw) but having a few issues that I could use a little assistance with.....1) could you share the sensor code for the lights_on_dashboard sensor? and the other is how to configure the "actions" fr the bottom row of buttons on the dashboard. Again I am somewhat new and learning but these two areas are really giving me a challenge. Thanks in advance!!!
At last someone is explaining perfect for the total noobs who want to have a smart home! Great video!
Do you absolutely need a Raspberry Pi to setup Home Assistant or is there another route or option?
Can run a vm on your pc if it has resources
You deserve way more views on your videos man. They are pro level quality. Keep up the awesome work!
Is this based on the tablet dashboard from Mattias?
wallpanels are so much overrated these days. at least, for what they are used. the same is for nfc controlled stuff. it is just uncomfortable. everything you need, you are better and more comfortable just by voice control e.g. over google, alexa etc. There are just a few exceptions. e.g. LED control for differen custom color type (if you arent using presets). Or if you want to look at a chart which shows you energy consumption over a preriod and those stuff. apart from that: voice control or automatically event triggered e.g. by a motion sensor. nobody wants to run to a tablet to activate a charger. its just sensless
super clean dashboard. very impressive
Great and v.useful video. Out of interest, do you use the PI in parallel for anything else other than as a Home Assistant?
No, raspberry pi's don't have many resources and as a result aren't really suitable for running multiple services in parallel. Glad you found the video useful 😄
Great video and very helpful! Smoothest 'Like and subscribe' request I've ever seen too! Oh, and change ya sheets! LOL Looking forward to more content from you! Liked and subscribed.
Don't think I'll take advice from someone who can't buy a beer yet. 👣
Just an observation. Your mouse movements are at Mach2, can't follow without numerous replays, save gave up.
Hi J, do you have Amazon store? We need an influencer to do a video. How can I chat with you?
Very nice dashboard! Could you let me know if you used any automation or scenes for the Lightning - where it shows how many lights are on (left side screen) and for the sheets changing logic? I am trying to find in dashboard/cards yaml source this variable and i cannot find: sensor.lights_on_dashboard_counter - in another place, where is written. Thanks.
If the address isn't shared then why do they ask for it?
it's used for location-based automations, for example turning on your lights + thermostat when you arrive home
Great video, well done!
Thanks for the vid! Any risk of battery over charging to bloat/fire?
@msgmi most modern tablets have technology built in that prevents the battery from overcharging and posing a fire hazard. However, if you're still paranoid like me, you can use a smart plug to automate the charging process. Just install the HA app on the tablet, and set up an automation to turn on the plug when the battery drops below a certain threshold and back off when it's sufficiently charged. I have mine set up to kick on when the tablet drops below 65% and back off when it reaches 80, as I read l-ion batteries tend to last longer when kept within that range.
yet another "basic" intro video that doesn't tell you what to do if entering that info in your browser...is it the browser on the RPi? or another machine in the network?, for example.
Browser would be on another computer on the network. Once you install and plug in the Pi, all of your work is done from other computers.
@@TheAppleFreak +thanks for clarifying!
We are used to watch at YT people automating a whole house, but its adorable how this young man do same just at his bedroom, and doing it amazing! Despite of his youth, he makes very well things. I'm 35 and I learn a lot watching your videos. Congrats!!
So great that you don't tell anyone how to get the Google Drive Backup addon. It's NOT in the Community Store.
Hi, is MINIX Z100-0dB suitable for running Home Assistant on Proxmox, Linux?
So everything up until the point where I see the new dashboard it says custom element doesn’t exist grid layout
any progress in this issue?
@@adrianopery not on my end
make sure you have layout-card installed
may be a dumb question, but i followed your video and am getting a error for custom element doesnt exist - grid layout... its literally just a page full of code, any suggestions?
hi, good video thank you. I have 2 questions : - What is it supposed to happen when you click on the lower cards scenes/music etc.. ? the toggle section is empty and I'd like some ideas - All the phu custom icons aren't handled by default, what extension did you install for them to work please ? Thanks, Very beautiful dashboard BTW, keep up the good work !
@irukafx glad you liked the dashboard and video! For the lower buttons, I use browser-mod to show a popup with further controls based on each button. So, for the scenes button, the popup shows mushroom template cards that activate my most commonly used scenes. You can put pretty much anything you want in the popups, the documentation explains how to do that: github.com/thomasloven/hass-browser_mod. And for the phu icons, you'll want to install custom brand icons, which can be done via HACS.
@@itsmejimmylandry Would you mind sharing an example? I somehow cannot get it to work - I only get an empty popup... Thank you!
You said that if the internet goes down that HA would still connect to my devices, how exactly? My devices are connected to my router via wifi. I'm currently using Google Assistant with a Hub Max, Hub, a Nest Thermostat, and a few Mini's. The I have Wyze App for my cameras and a different app for my lights because Google no longer recognizes them. I want to control everything in one place whether I'm at home or somewhere else. Looking for a solution. Also I'm hoping to be able to not have Google always listening to what goes on in my home. I feel like its always spying on me.
1. "How does HA connect to devices without internet?" - This honestly depends on the specific device in question, but in a lot of cases these devices have ways of letting other things on your local network to command them about. Sometimes it's an advertised feature (HomeKit, Zigbee, Z-Wave, and Matter are all built around this), sometimes there's ways to do it that are undocumented that smart people found out, and sometimes you have to trick the devices into talking to your Home Assistant server instead of whatever cloud server they actually want to talk to. Either way, the people who work on the software for all of those devices figured out how to do it and tied it into Home Assistant. This isn't always the case with every device, but you'd be surprised how much you can do it with. 2. "I want to control it everywhere, whether I'm home or somewhere else." - Home Assistant isn't the best at this, admittedly. At home it'll do it beautifully no questions asked, but if you want to do it away from home you've got three options. * The first is to pay the company that (formerly) ran the Home Assistant project $5 a month and they'll set everything up so you can access your install remotely, as well as integrate it into Alexa and Google Home as you wish. This is the easiest option but it's also a paid option, which isn't always ideal. * The second option only works if you use iPhones and have a HomePod, Apple TV, or iPad that stays at home, and that's to set up Apple Home remote access. Home Assistant can take all of your stuff and expose it to Apple Home, which you can then act as an intermediary. This is a pretty easy to set up option, but it requires additional hardware and really is focused on Apple users, so results may vary. * The last option is to spend some time and expose your Home Assistant install to the internet yourself (this part is easyish, depending on how comfortable you are with tech). Integrating HA back into Alexa and Google Home (should you want to use them as voice assistants) is a pain in the ass too and requires a laundry list of steps. Bad news is it's a bunch of up front work, but the good news is once it all works it should just continue to work without issue. Additionally, these are pretty well documented processes here on TH-cam, so you'll be able to find step by step guides. I personally use a combination of options 2 and 3, and I'm quite happy with the results. I can control everything via Apple Home, and if I need more info or need to do something else I can hop into the HA app.
You can mqtt. Certain devices like tuya work offline in HA, there's also quite a few "local" integrations. I also did a firmware flash on my wyze cam but AFAIK the flash has been discontinued. There's also a Google Cloud which should work with Nest gear haven't got thermostat but full control of my Google Cast devices. Like the comment above: it takes alot of work -Weeks or even Months if you have a life- before you're happy with it, by then you're addicted and do it all over again for fun
6:48 File (Walltablet _grid_redacted)isn't there anymore or a different name?
give Node red a try for creating automations, i found it so much easier to create complex automations compared to the default home assistant integration. Watchman is also great for flagging system issues like obsolete entities, automation issues, devices offline etc
Do a tutorial on HACS plz
Amazing template. Great job. I just cannot get it to work. Are you able to support me at all?
@user-hz7bi8lz4m what errors are you getting?
@@itsmejimmylandry i am new to HA. I have no knowledge of coding and when i try to use this template or even the fusion i am getting all sorts of errors. I live this dashboard and amazing work you have put in it.
@@user-hz7bi8lz4mEssentially you’ll just want to edit the individual tiles that are showing an error to direct them to items that exist in your smart home. He touched on this near the middle of the video. As an example: Think about it as if you and a friend swapped all desktop shortcuts from each other’s computers, then expected things to still work properly. This wouldn’t work because the shortcuts are still looking for files that aren’t there anymore. His lights aren’t in your home, so you’ll need to tell each tile which lights exist in your home. It’s very time consuming, but the only way unfortunately.
This is so helpful. I am a teenage boy and I’m building a smart room just like you.
Lol, do not add 12 hour time sensor. Also no pounds, inches, yards and other weird things just a few people are using :D
Hey Jimmy! It would be great to link up for a live stream :)
Hi, love your work. A very clean way of doing things. Just wondering if you would share how your coding your footer for the purposes of pop ups.
Very good [;oD
great intro video
