Smart Home Technology Hub
A calm reference library for understanding today’s smart home tools — without pressure or overwhelm.
Smart home technology has grown quickly, and not always clearly.
This hub exists to explain what different smart home technologies do, how they work, and where they may (or may not) fit into everyday life.
There are no buying guides here.
No “must-have” lists.
No pressure to upgrade your home.
Just clear, neutral explanations — so you can understand what exists before deciding what’s right for you.
Think of this space as a learning library, not a recommendation engine.
