Installation on your computer
Once Python is installed, execute the following code in a console:
$ pip3 install homeassistant
$ hass --open-ui
Running these commands will:
- Install Home Assistant
- Launch Home Assistant and serve the web interface on http://localhost:8123
If you’re running a Linux-based platform, we suggest you follow the VirtualEnv instructions to avoid using root.
