It is a very good layman's guide to easily design, build and deploy your own Home Automation system
This book offers many practical tips for building a smart home with Raspberry Pi and Home Assistant. It's helping me make my smart home more affordable—and that in a comprehensive way. If you need useful guidance, this book is a solid choice. Especially useful is the detailed step by step guidance along with the actual parts and estimated cost. Very useful if you are on a budget or need to estimate the job.The book is written in a way that's easy for everyone to follow. Would have liked to see a few more "applications" to incorporate cameras, loop sensors, etc.

Easy guide to implement smart home devices
Recently started learning coding and found out about raspberry pi, and was intrigued when I saw this book. Went in expecting to find lots of programming to set the whole thing up, but turns out its so simple and there's already pre-made applications readily available to sync everything together. This is more like a buyers guide & installation guide, as everything is so easy to follow.
