I recently stumbled upon CoCoHue, an open-source integration for the Hue Bridge, and I must say, it’s been a game-changer for my smart lighting setup! 
CoCoHue offers a wide range of features that go beyond the basics, including scene support, bulb effects, and improved group controls. What really impressed me is how it integrates seamlessly with my existing Hubitat ecosystem without any hiccups.
One of the standout features for me is the scene support. I’ve always wanted to create custom scenes for different moods, and CoCoHue makes it incredibly easy. The ability to assign scenes to button/switch devices adds a whole new layer of convenience. Plus, the improved group support means I can now adjust brightness levels smoothly across multiple lights, which was a bit of a hassle before.
The integration process was straightforward, especially using the Hubitat Package Manager. I appreciate the detailed GitHub documentation and the option to install via a bundle file for those who prefer a hands-off approach. The developer’s commitment to continuous improvement is evident, with regular updates adding new features and addressing user feedback.
If you’re looking to elevate your Hue lighting experience without compromising on customization or functionality, I highly recommend giving CoCoHue a try. It’s not just an integration—it’s a comprehensive solution for smarter, more enjoyable lighting control.
