Building a Smarter Home, One Screen at a Time

A custom ESPHome touchscreen control panel and alarm keypad built with LVGL, designed to replace bloated dashboards with a fast, local-first interface that feels more like dedicated hardware than an app.

A Remote That Finally Belongs to You

Local-first smart home control meets real device awareness. This setup combines an ESPHome-powered IR remote for instant, customizable control with an HDMI-CEC listener that provides accurate, real-time TV state–eliminating guesswork and cloud dependencies entirely.
