Hey guys, I’d like to set up smart home for myself. I am looking for open source tools without connection to external services. Thanks in advance

Thanks for the hint I did not know about Nabu Casa.

Although I am not clear about the benefit of the service. I thought I could achieve the same kind of access with simply forwarding ports 80 and 443 from my router to my home assistant. Is there anything wrong with my intended setup?

Well, cloudflare is (supposedly) more secure, but other then that, not really, everything in nabu casa can be achieved without it, but nabu casa is easier and supports home assistant
