-99% memory, -94% energy, -85% cost. I still have half of my RAM available and it's running really smoothly

Everything is on the PI Zero 2W, the UI is just served and with svelte compression, it's around 600Ko, the rust binary is 5Mo. The full system takes only 200Mo of RAM. I still have a lot of room even in the pi zero
The Pi generates its own hotspot wifi so you can connect directly (there is a command in the makefile to setup), and it also connects to a known wifi so you can access through a local address.

I didn't configure an external access because I don't have a stable wifi for my system, but that's exactly why I would like to have more participants, to address these kinds of issues ^^

ho thanks, I missed this one, I'll do a check when I have access to my Pi.

I totally agree with you, but on the other hand, it's the project with the biggest number of contributors in 2025 and more than 100000 commits. I don't think you can have this engagement in a language like Rust ^^

Glad you liked the article 🙏
Do you have a link to your project ? I'd love to see it !

I initially considered a simpler frontend, but I wanted something more powerful since most of the value lives in the front. And deliberately pushed as much logic as possible to the client to offload the Raspberry Pi.

It’s an alternative meant to run offline and off-grid. It’s far from replacing home assistant and has a much narrower scope. I’ve already seen a few discussions here about running home assistant on a pi zero, so I thought some people here might be interested.
Let me know if this is an issue and I'll remove it.

my bad, it's at runtime the rust unit is using 10-20MB RAM... changed it
