Tips

  • Adjust scenes once and let all dependent automations inherit the change.
  • Pair with script/monthly_color_scene.yaml; the active mode and scene are exposed by sensor.holiday_lighting_mode and sensor.holiday_lighting_scene.

All of my configuration files are tested against the most stable version of home-assistant.
