## 🪟 Smart Shade Setup: Homey Compatibility & Installation Options

We have been testing our Zigbee roller blind motor solution with Homey-compatible gateways to ensure stable integration and reliable daily use in smart home setups.

During this process, we also found that different users have different installation preferences:

- Some users prefer a **flexible motor-only solution** for custom blind systems and integrations

- While others prefer a **more convenient, fully assembled ready-to-use product** for faster installation and easier deployment

To support both scenarios, we provide two options based on the same Zigbee platform, both designed to work within the Homey ecosystem.

# ⚙ Option 1: Hidden In-Tube Zigbee Motor (DIY / Custom Build)
