<p>Another month has passed and some great new features have landed in Home Assistant. This month release has been made possible by <a href="https://github.com/balloob">balloob</a>, <a href="https://github.com/ettisan">ettisan</a>, <a href="https://github.com/fabaff">fabaff</a>, <a href="https://github.com/gyran">gyran</a>, <a href="https://github.com/jamespcole">jamespcole</a>, <a href="https://github.com/michaelarnauts">michaelarnauts</a>, <a href="https://github.com/miniconfig">miniconfig</a> and <a href="https://github.com/rmkraus">rmkraus</a>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>This release includes some architectural changes by me. The first is that the frontend is now based on a <a href="http://optimizely.github.io/nuclear-js/">NuclearJS</a> JavaScript backend. This has greatly helped to organize and optimize the frontend code. Another change is that Home Assistant will now install dependencies on-demand instead of installing dependencies for all supported devices.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><strong>IP Camera Support</strong>
|
||
James has worked very hard to add support for IP cameras to Home Assistant which is included in this release. The initial release focusses on providing generic IP camera support. This means that any webcam that can exposes a JPEG image via a url can be integrated.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Home Assistant will route the requests to your camera via the server allowing you to expose IP camera’s inside your network via the Home Assistant app.</p>

<p><strong>Arduino</strong>
|
||
<img src="/images/supported_brands/arduino.png" style="border:none; box-shadow: none; float: right;" height="50" /> Fabian has contributed support for interfacing with Arduinos. This makes it possible to connect your Arduino via USB and expose pins as sensor data and write to pins via switches. Have a look at <a href="/components/arduino/">the docs</a> for an extensive guide to get started.</p>
