Earlier this month we shared a forum thread using sunrise effects for alarms. πŸ‘‰πŸ» Here's one for maintaining tasks on a dashboard. It's very easy to lose track of tasks if you don't have them easily accessible. Check out this community member's project to solve just that. ➑️ https://www.reddit.com/r/homeassistant/comments/1igod4v/update_project_dashboard_with_taskschecklists/ image

It's #MentalHealthAwareness Month - if you're into tech, chances are you diverge from the typical. From ensuring lights are tuned to your preference to keeping up on chores, we have a few community projects to highlight this month that help w/ executive function. 😊 First - a simple wake-up alarm with a sunrise effect. Waking up at the same time every day without sound alarms jarring you out of bed is incredibly helpful for those who are autistic or those with ADHD. ➑️ image
