Privacy IoT with Candlestick 2.0, Raspberry Pi, and Zigbee

Most mornings start with the question, “what’s the temperature?” I am a privacy minded technologist who has casually researched home automation for decades. Yesterday, I achieved a private, controllable Internet of Things (IoT) setup that is flexible, inexpensive, and hackable. This beach head is the convergence of embedded devices running Linux (Raspberry Pi 4b), weather sensors communicating over Zigbee, and Candlestick 2.0 built on WebThings.io.
