## What it is
Alarmo is a Home Assistant custom integration that turns existing sensors into a full-featured home alarm system, configurable entirely through a browser UI. It supports arm modes, areas, user codes, MQTT panels, and automations for notifications and actions.

## Use cases
- set up a DIY home alarm system in Home Assistant
- arm and disarm my house alarm with codes per user
- get push notifications when the alarm is triggered
- integrate my alarm panel with HomeKit or Google Home via MQTT
- create separate alarm areas for different parts of the house
- automatically arm the alarm at night
- build a lovelace card to control my alarm

## When to choose
- you use Home Assistant and want a configurable alarm system from existing sensors
- you need multiple arm modes, areas, and user codes
- you want MQTT or HomeKit/Google Home integration for alarm panels

## When to avoid
- you don't use Home Assistant
- you need a professionally monitored security system
- you need a standalone alarm hub without Home Assistant
