Home Assistant Examples ​

There are three categories of Home Assistant Examples:

  • Lovelace cards

  • Automations

  • Templates

    Templates can be used to create template sensors and are the building blocks for UI elements

Config packages ​

Config packages in Home Assistant allows you to bundle different component's configuration together. The examples on this site assumes that you have a package folder, referred to as /config/packages/, where you add the example yaml package files.

Read up on Packages and specifically how to Create a packages folder

The short version: This config snippet will load packages from /config/packages/. If this is not clear, read the HA docs again.
