What’s the best way of bridging devices from my homey to HA? I have been using the new official matter app but seems to keep crashing once a day.

Is there any other way of bridging from homey to HA reliably?

Thanks

What’s your target? Get Homey devices to HA to use them in a HA dashboard?

A common way is to use MQTT to sync devices to HA.

Here is an older tutorial (german) to set up Mqtt Broker (on Homey, Docker or HA) and Mqtt Client+Hub (Homey). Then you can use HAs Mqtt integration to auto-discover all exported devices.

Ich versuche es absichtlich einfach zu schreiben, dass Neueinsteiger eine Chance haben es zu verstehen. Ich beschreibe die klassische Methode. Feinheiten kommen irgendwann später.

I think @Peter_Kawa can show some other tutorials if needed.
