I am no programmer at all but would it be possible to make an app for a zigbee2mqtt? Nice way to bypass the zigbee from the Homey. I know most do not like that but i would make life a bit easier ---

If you are looking for someone to create a new app, there is a [Homey Community App Requests topic](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-community-app-requests/2713)where you can make your request. ---

Why would you want a dedicated app? zigbee2mqtt is all about mqtt e.g. use the mqtt client (and optionally server) ---

I know but if you have a lot of devices and need to make a flow for every device on a mobile phone it takes for ever. And with a good app you would be able to snif the connected devices and have them added to homey automatic ---

I agree, the idea of being able to add a zigbee2mqtt device as Homey device would work much easier then creating a list of flows using the MQTT client. For instance, if you have a flow that turns off all lights, it will automatically work if you can add a zigbee2mqtt device as a regular light device. Zigbee2mqtt is still on my TODO list of “things to check out”. I have a CC2531 dongle, but no programmer (perhaps @TedTolboom has one?). ---

No, I don’t have a programmer. ☹ ---

I have a stick already and another one on its way including a programmer. I have it running now with Domoticz and HA and works great. ---

If you don’t want to buy a programmer you can buy a cc2531 flashed with the right firmware from [flashedfirmware.com](http://flashedfirmware.com). I bought one flashed as concentrator and one as router and I am pretty happy 🙂 ---

I’ve been using zigbee2mqtt with Node RED to complement Homey. This works but isn’t ideal. ![zigbee2mqtt%20NodeRed](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/2X/7/740ac151dcba42b90ec2cf982b64e86bec26f169.png) Now with [MQTT Hub](https://community.homey.app/t/mqtt-hub-gateway/6766/555) version 2.2.0 you could map directly to Homey using the MQTT Device. ---
