Quality: 8/10 Relevance: 9/10

Summary

CNX Software reports on Olimex HoT, a low-resource, open-source Home of Things platform designed to run on 128MB RAM/128MB flash and integrate with ESPHome nodes. It aims to be a lightweight alternative to Home Assistant/OpenHAB, using the T113-OLinuXino board with OpenWrt and ESPHome, with a planned release around mid-2026 and notable hardware/software tradeoffs like lacking SSL support initially.
