Proud to hit our first major milestone for the Open-Dash project.

Our DIY self hosted Node.js platform has been released on https://github.com/open-dash/open-dash-diy as a early ALPHA Release. What does this mean? Well, things aren’t pretty but the goal is to test the API / SmartApp (while we wait for review from SmartThings) and focus on building templates and interactions.

This release is functionally working, but expect bugs, and complete failure.

If you run into issues, have suggestions, ideas, etc. use the github.com issues for the project / repo so we can manage them there.

Feel free to submit pull requests against the project and share your templates!

Here’s a complete walkthrough of where we are today and how to get started:
