The practical side of home automation using Apple's HomeKit. This isn't a professional blog, but documentation of my experiences. What may be of interest is that it starts with my 1916 home in California, and then moves with me when I moved to the UK in 2021 and moved into a 400 year old house/garage that had been "updated" in about 1850 and continually modified afterwards until the early 1990's. It is definitely a tale of 2 continents, learnings, and different technologies.
