Use your old tablet as a home hub, with Home Assistant integration.

• Photos slider (like a slideshow) with pictures from the device
• Clock in the left bottom of the screen
• Devices dashboard, with entities from Home Assistant
• Glassmorphism design

This project uses Expo 50 (React Native 0.73), with Bun as the package manager.

This app needs a development build because of extra WebRTC modules.

One can get one by running bunx expo:android or bunx expo:ios with the APP_VARIANT environment variable set to development. Or create a new project in the Expo website and build it in EAS.

A .env file needs to be created before the build, with the following properties:

• ACCESS_TOKEN: Home Assistant access token
• HOST: Home Assistant URL
• STREAM: For future use; choose a random string

By default, this code includes entities from my Home Assistant instance. One should change them to their own, by following the properties defined in the types/devices.ts file.

Run bun start in the terminal (alias for bunx expo start --dev-client).
