Home Assistant

Connect to a Home Assistant service behind NAT from your computer.
In this tutorial, we will be creating a network with two nodes: a GCP virtual machine (running Home Assistant) and a home computer. To deploy our network, we will be using Syntropy Stack.

What is Home Assistant?

Open-source home automation that puts local control and privacy first. Powered by a worldwide community of tinkerers and DIY enthusiasts. Perfect to run on a Raspberry Pi or a local server. Demo
