# MySensors - **Website:** - **Primary alias:** `mysensors.org` ## Description MySensors is an open-source hardware and software community dedicated to do-it-yourself home automation and the Internet of Things. It helps enthusiasts create affordable, original sensors and actuators for building a connected home, using components such as Arduino, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi, NRF24L01+ and RFM69. For newcomers and experienced makers alike, MySensors offers step-by-step build instructions, ready-to-use code examples and adaptable open-source hardware designs. Its software library provides secure communication for connected devices and has been tested with more than 20 leading home automation controllers. The site also provides controller information, component references, articles, code contribution guidelines and a community forum where users can learn, share ideas and collaborate. MySensors is designed to make home automation projects approachable, with guidance to help users move from individual components to working devices and integrations. In 2025, the platform became part of Code Garage, whose stated goal is to preserve and grow the community as a place for learning, experimentation and collaboration. ## Industries - 🖥 Computers Electronics and Technology - 🖥 Smart Homes and Home Automation _(under Computers Electronics and Technology)_ ## Logos & icons - logo _(primary)_ — PNG, SVG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/idxpjEGwNX/w/820/h/286/theme/dark/logo.png?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1793160519579) ## Colors | Name | Hex | Theme | | --- | --- | --- | | Potters Clay | #8a6d3b | dark | | Sandy brown | #f0ad4e | light | | Danube | #5089cf | accent | ## Fonts - kg_second_chances_solidRg — asset _(custom)_ - Roboto Condensed — asset _(google)_ --- _Source: _ _See [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) for a full list of agent-readable pages, and [/auth.md](/auth.md) for how agents authenticate._
