<p>Home Assistant land has been busy and a lot of people have been creating awesome stuff. We’ve added <a href="/cookbook/">a cookbook section</a> to the website full of examples how you can automate different things. Make sure you take a look and share your own recipes too!</p>

<p>Haaska allows you to control lights, switches, and scenes exposed by your Home Assistant instance using an Amazon Echo. This is different from our own <a href="/components/alexa/">Alexa</a> component because it will teach the Amazon Echo directly about the devices instead of teaching it to talk to Home Assistant. It will not allow you to use custom sentences but it will allow you to skip the ‘Ask Home Assistant’ part when giving commands:</p>
<ul>
<li>“Alexa, set kitchen to twenty percent”</li>
<li>“Alexa, turn on evening scene”</li>
<li>“Alexa, turn off bedroom light”</li>
</ul>

<p>Contributor Maddox has created a plugin for HomeBridge, an open-source HomeKit bridge. This will allow you to control your home using Siri on your Apple devices. HomeBridge has recently restructured so you’ll have to install the plugin separately with the homebridge-homeassistant npm package.</p>

<p>A few weeks have past and it is time again for another release: version 0.7.4. This time we’re very glad to be able to introduce brand new integration with OwnTracks to allow tracking of people on a map. The geo support consists of three different parts:</p>

<li>Brand new <a href="/components/zone/">zone component</a> to define zones to identify locations and <a href="/getting-started/automation-trigger/#zone-trigger">trigger automation</a></li>
<li>A map in the UI to see all this (<a href="/demo/">see it in action in the demo</a>)</li>

<p>I have just merged the latest version of the development branch into master. Here are some of the highlights of this release:</p>
<p><strong>Configuration via the frontend</strong><br /><br />
Phliips Hue will now be auto discovered and uses the new <code>configurator</code> component to interact with the user to finish the setup process.</p>
<p><strong>Wink Hub support</strong><br /><br />
Thanks to the work done by John McLaughlin and Geoff Norton we now support the lights, switches and sensors that are connected to the Wink hub.</p>
<p><strong>The getting started guide and component page have been reorganized</strong><br /><br />
The getting started instructions have been split into separate pages per component and a general overview page. The goal is to have a page per component that describes:</p>
<ul>
<li>What it does</li>
<li>How to set it up</li>
<li>Which states it maintains</li>
<li>Which services it provides</li>
<li>Additional development tips</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>More reasonable errors</strong><br /><br />
Home Assistant should now throw better errors and offer solutions if you do not have the right version of Python 3, forgot to clone the git submodules or install the dependencies.</p>
<p><strong>Streamlined first launch</strong><br /><br />
Home Assistant now supports <code>--open-ui</code> and <code>--demo-mode</code> command line properties to open the browser automatically and have something to show. Home Assistant now supports to be run without a password, allowing the interface to login automatically on launch.</p>
