In my last post<\/a>\u00a0about using Node-Red to make automations with Home Assistant, I showed some very simple flows for turning lights on and off. While it is important to get used to the Node-Red way of doing things and it’s interface, none of the examples in my post are very compelling. All of that can easily be accomplished in Home Assistant already, so what makes Node-Red so awesome?<\/p>\n

Let’s examine some of Node-Red’s features a little closer to get a better idea of what’s going on, how we can use that to create dynamic automations\u00a0with Home Assistant, and an example of an alarm clock radio flow that uses some advanced logic nodes.<\/p>\n
