Introduction

I’ve always been interested in making all things smart through the use of cheap electronics and computers, moving all the “brains” from expensive hardware to hopefully Open Source Software. Today you can buy really cheap sensors on the internet and modify them to fit your purposes thanks to the numerous tutorials you can find online in great websites such as Instructables (here is one of my favorites). Since 2012 I’ve been building up stuff for my home, first very basic, today much more complex. Since people keep asking me why and how I do this stuff, I figured I should just write about it in this extended blog post.
