Home Assistant Editor & Validator Tools
These tools are designed help you write better Home Assistant automations, templates, and Python apps. They are designed specifically for Home Assistant automations, templates, and Python apps - not just generic YAML, Jinja2, or Python code. This means you get feedback and advice tailored to Home Assistant - making it easier to avoid mistakes and build automations that work.
Features include:
- Real-time syntax highlighting, cheat-sheets, autocomplete suggestions, and copy-paste snippets.
- Code validation with clear, user-friendly explanations of common errors - including tricky and platform-specific issues. When a validation error occurs, the tool will analyze the affected lines to try to find the likely cause and, where possible, offer a beginner-friendly explanation - and even suggest specific fixes in some cases! If the cause isn’t clear, we will still try to word the error message in a user-friendly way or offer guidance such as common causes & fixes.
- Warnings for mistakes that may not be flagged by Home Assistant itself.
- Simple interface suitable for both beginners and experienced users.
