# Home Assistant

> Connect smart-home devices and build local automations

Home Assistant is an open-source home automation platform that connects devices and services in a shared system. Users can build dashboards for lights, climate controls, sensors, and other connected equipment, then create automations based on schedules, events, or device states. It is designed around local control, with integrations using cloud services when a device requires them.

The platform runs on home hardware and can be extended with additional applications and community integrations. Its Assist voice system offers another way to control devices, while companion mobile apps provide dashboards, notifications, and presence information. Energy-management tools help users view household consumption and coordinate compatible equipment through the same interface.
