Welcome! Building a smart home can be confusing when you are first getting started. That’s why I created this blog. Here I will post resources, blogs, and videos in hopes that it will help you on your smart home journey.
I’ve been an Apple user for many years, so I decided build my smart home using HomeKit, Apple’s smart home platform. I have been gradually building my own smart home, one piece at a time, over the past few years. I decided to document my process here and on YouTube for others who may find it useful. I focus on building an EASY Apple Home smart home and hope that by sharing my journey and experience, you can do the same!
So take a look around. On the blog I’ve categorized all of my content to help you easily navigate and find what you are looking for.
Also check out my recommended products section where I keep an updated list of the homekit products that I have tested, use, and recommend.
