Home Assistant Apps: Development builds

Warning

This repository provides development builds for testing upcoming changes. Apps may fail to start, break after an update, or affect your Home Assistant system. Use these builds only if you are prepared to troubleshoot problems. For everyday use, choose the official stable repository.

Apps (formerly known as add-ons) for Home Assistant allow you to extend the functionality around your Home Assistant setup. These apps can consist of an application that Home Assistant can integrate with (e.g., a MQTT broker or database server) or allow access to your Home Assistant configuration (e.g., via Samba or using the File Editor).

Apps can be installed and configured via the Home Assistant frontend on systems that have installed Home Assistant.
