Software Update: Home Assistant Core 2022.10.0

Version 2022.10.0 of Home Assistant Core has been released. Home Assistant Core is an open source home automation platform created in Python 3. It runs via Hassbian on a Raspberry Pi 3 or a Linux, macOS or Windows computer. It supports detecting devices, such as Philips Hue, Belkin WeMo switches, Mr. Coffee coffee makers, IKEA’s smart switches and the mqtt protocol. In addition, where possible, it can control these devices and apply automation. For more information about Home Assistant, we refer to this page and our own Forum. The full release notes for this release are here to find; this is the announcement from it:

2022.10: All over the place

Happy October! October is always a special month for the project. It is the month everybody starts working on their home automations again, the month that Hacktoberfest brings in lots of new contributions and contributors to the project (welcome!), and also this year: the Month of “What the Heck?!”.

The Month of WTH already looks very promising, and many good and interesting issues, ideas, and suggestions to streamline have been proposed. Keep those topics and votes going. Oh! And Home Assistant Core 2022.10!

Last month’s release was a big one; this month’s release mostly continues to improve on that. I guess it’s no surprise that the biggest improvement can be found (once again) in Bluetooth! There is a lot more, though this release is a bit “all over the place”, which is actually kinda nice.
