ESPHome for your SMHUB, without the YAML.
The SMHUB ESPHome Builder lets you build ESPHome devices on your SMHUB by clicking, not by hand-editing YAML. Add sensors, switches and automations in a guided UI — and the Builder writes the config and firmware for you.
Point-and-click components, with a live YAML editor alongside for power users. Beginners never have to open it.
Three areas: Core (Wi-Fi / Ethernet, OTA, the encrypted Home Assistant API, MQTT), Components, and local Automations.
Reach the hub’s own hardware — CON1/CON2 I²C, SPI, ADC and GPIO headers, the Z-Wave slot, the UPS bus and native USB.
Genuine ESPHome config and firmware on a dedicated 700 MHz core, auto-discovered and encrypted in Home Assistant, updated over the air.
Three steps, done.
- 1Open the Builder on your hub
It runs on the SMHUB itself — start from a friendly guided interface.
- 2Add components and automations
Choose sensors, switches, lights and buses from menus; define local logic — no YAML keys to look up.
- 3Flash — it lands in Home Assistant
The Builder generates the firmware; the device is auto-discovered, encrypted and OTA-updated in HA.
The essentials.
