My smart light tells me what the weather will be like every day, thanks to Home Assistant
Home Assistant is a fantastic software suite that can be used to integrate practically anything you can think of into your smart home. It's not just devices either; from cheap, ESP32-based displays to game servers and more, chances are that if it exists, you can pull data from it to Home Assistant somehow. One of the first automations I configured in Home Assistant was a simple automation to turn on my light in my room when my alarm goes off in the morning, and now I've taken that and used it to communicate something very important first thing in the morning: the weather.
