Jeedom
Jeedom is free, open-source home automation software for connecting, controlling, and automating equipment. It operates locally without requiring a cloud connection, and its scenario engine lets users build routines that adapt an environment to daily life. The software supports local control, Zigbee, Z-Wave, voice assistants, cameras, and energy monitoring. Jeedom Market offers more than 400 plugins for additional integrations and capabilities, while multi-brand and multi-protocol compatibility is checked through a dedicated compatibility site. A local history engine provides graphs, smoothing, compression, CSV and XLS export, and links to InfluxDB and Grafana. Jeedom exposes a JSON-RPC 2.0 API and another API using URLs and HTTP requests. iOS and Android apps can control installations over local Wi-Fi or a mobile network. The mobile WebApp is mainly advisory and cannot edit scenarios, modify equipment, or open configuration. Software costs nothing; some plugins and services may be paid. Community forums and approved professionals provide installation help.
