What's new
Aurora can now start you from a curated recipe instead of a blank page.
- 12 ready-made starting points - CO2 monitor, motion light, weather station, fridge/freezer monitor, room presence, home/away routine, energy dashboard, notification hub, vacation mode, greenhouse, smart thermostat, and a button scene controller.
- Describe a goal, get suggestions - say something broad like "I want to do something about air quality" and Aurora offers the closest recipes, always with "start from scratch" as an option.
- Pick one and Aurora builds it - the full project folder is generated from the recipe (hardware with verified part numbers where applicable, automation pattern, and dashboard), then you customise the handful of parameters that matter.
- Across the board - recipes span sensor builds and pure Home Assistant automations that need no new hardware, and each links the full worked example when one exists.
