I've been playing with this a bit. Seems pretty decent but I've been having a few issues. Main issue seems to be that the config file keeps disappearing which is a bit weird (as it seems to keep the config so the file must be somewhere); suspect this is just due to my lack of familiarity with docker so I may just install it onto a spare raspberry pi.
Also seems a bit awkward that all the various passwords are stored in plain text, doesn't seem an easy way round that (and still having it auto-start).

Homeassistant is great.
I've got it controlling (or at least able to control) everything at moment
The plan is to put together a few automation scripts at some point, so that I don't have to worry about turning off lights etc... when I'm out.

I've gone full Ikea Tradfri for our bits. Mostly happy with them, but have found a couple of oddities like the kitchen lighting strips, which don't come on with a switch flick like the bulbs do.
They seem to be a Hue based product.
I've been poking a little at https://www.home-assistant.io/ to see if I can create a unified touch screen control panel to go by the front door that also has a load of other info on it (train/bus times, weather, etc)
