Versie 2026.2.0 van Home Assistant is uitgebracht. Dit opensourceplatform voor domotica is gemaakt in Python 3 en ondersteunt het detecteren van apparaten zoals Philips Hue, Belkin, Mr. Coffee-koffiezetapparaten, WeMo-schakelaars, de slimme schakelaars van IKEA en het MQTT-protocol. Daarnaast kan het waar mogelijk deze apparaten aansturen en automatisering toepassen. Voor meer informatie over Home Assistant verwijzen we naar deze pagina en ons eigen forum. De volledige releasenotes voor deze uitgave zijn hier te vinden. Dit is de aankondiging daaruit:
2026.2: Home, sweet overviewThe new Home Dashboard is now the official default for all new installations.

The Open Home Foundation device database is being built as a community-powered resource to help everyone make informed decisions about smart home devices. Head to Home Assistant Labs to opt in and contribute your anonymized device data.
Add-ons are now called Apps! After a lot of community discussion, it was time to use terminology that everyone understands. Your TV has apps, your phone has apps, and now Home Assistant has apps too. My personal favorite this release? The completely redesigned Quick search! If you’re like me and navigate Home Assistant using your keyboard, you’re going to love this one. Press
