      Maybe home assistant a few years ago…I have a fully functional setup with loads of automations and haven’t written a single line of YAML for it.

        I just started using it a few months ago and most stuff I did was only possible using yaml (templates, custom integrations etc.). I think it depends on your requirements.

          It’s relative. If you just started, it might feel like a lot of YAML, but if you used it back when everything had to be done in YAML, modern Home Assistant will feel like little to no YAML.

    I wanted to answer but there is a space missing or too much, idk. Long story short: my answer isn’t working

    It’s ok, someone will just swing through the window and save you from the complexity and dread of YAML with the gracefulness of pulumi and jsonnet.

      Right. Why should someone write 10 lines of yaml when they can program 20 lines of Go? Or python. Or assembly for a risc cpu because it just feels so friendly with that nice instruction set.
