Hi Michael, and welcome!

Good choice → **Keep the z2m setup** I’d like to advice, this is superior to Homey Bridge (and Homey zigbee in general) in many ways.

You can use the [Homey zigbee2mqtt community app](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-zigbee2mqtt-use-zigbee-devices-via-mqtt/83214) to add the zigbee devices to Homey;  
An other option is to use the [Homey Home assistant community app](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-home-assistant-community-app/71477).
