Let's build our own smarthome thermostat the way we want it!

HestiaPi is an open project running successfully for a few years now in several homes around the world allowing people to access and control heating and hot water locally or remotely.
It is based on Raspberry Pi and interfaces with the world via a web GUI and/or an LCD with 4 buttons for the more traditional people.
