How I organize my Home Assistant automations
Automations in Home Assistant are the best thing after the cocoa discovery, I use them a lot for many different things and I'm always wondering how to solve the first world problem of the day. The hassle with it is that apart from a list and the search there are not much more options to filter, and when your automations grow it became a bit of a pain finding what you want.
