Last time I looked into this there was an uninvuative (for a newbie) config file that required a server restart to see changes. Not exactly the easiest way to learn as it was a very slow feedback loop.
Besides being able to install it as a Python package on Python 3, you can also install it using our Hass.io OS. Based on ResinOS and powered by Docker, it offers over the air updates and management of your device via the user interface: https://home-assistant.io/hassio/

Edit: glad to see the project on Github is APACHE licensed. Any drawbacks from using the software compiled str8 from Github as opposed to downloading the binary blob from the website?
You can use the platform for free (we will also open-source over time), it can run on Raspberry 3 and we added an integration with the amazing Home Assistant: https://home-assistant.io/components/snips
Has the automation scripting improved recently? Last time I looked into this there was an uninvuative (for a newbie) config file that required a server restart to see changes. Not exactly the easiest way to learn as it was a very slow feedback loop.
(Automations have been able to be reloaded without restarting for a while now by calling the automation/reload service)
[edit: added word "service" at the end]

Founder? Is this for-profit? If so, how you gonna make money? Edit: glad to see the project on Github is APACHE licensed. Any drawbacks from using the software compiled str8 from Github as opposed to downloading the binary blob from the website?
Assuming I have a few lights controllable via GPIO on the Raspberry pi (with custom circuitry to power the lights), what’d be the easiest way to integrate them with Hass? (btw, hass means 'hate' in German)
One of the primary deployment platforms is the Raspberry Pi, so it is very well supported. I believe this would do exactly what you want:

The published version of Home Assistant is 100% what is on GitHub. Home automation is able to gather very private details of your house. It knows when you're home, what TV shows you watch, when you go to sleep. We keep all this data locally in your house, without the cloud. We want to make sure that anyone can check and influence the code that is distributed. No data should leave your house without your permission.
