    Frontend

    The web interface of Home Assistant, built with Lit and TypeScript, in the home-assistant/frontend repository.

    In code
    home-assistant/frontendsrc/

    The frontend is everything users see in their browser: dashboards, the settings, the automation editor, and every dialog. The companion apps show the same frontend.

    It talks to Home Assistant Core over a WebSocket connection.
