HACS (Home Assistant Community Store) is a custom integration for Home Assistant that provides a UI to discover, download, install, and manage custom elements like integrations, plugins, themes, and scripts. It tracks updates for installed custom repositories directly from GitHub.
Use cases
- install custom integrations in home assistant from the ui
- manage and update custom home assistant components
- discover community themes and dashboard plugins for home assistant
- track updates for custom home assistant repositories
- publish my own home assistant custom element to the community
When to choose
- you run Home Assistant and want to install or update community-made integrations, plugins, or themes without manual file copying
- you want a UI to track and manage custom repositories and their updates
- you are a developer publishing custom Home Assistant elements and want validation via GitHub Actions
When to avoid
- you only use official Home Assistant integrations available through the built-in store
- you are not comfortable with custom integrations or lack filesystem access to your Home Assistant configuration
- you are looking for a mobile app or a way to manage apps - HACS explicitly does not handle apps
