If you need help with diyHue you can get support from other users, aswell as the maintainer.

Please use GitHub, Slack or Discourse, other platforms are not checked by the maintainers.

Slack JoinSlack SlackStatus

Use Slack for a general chat or fast live support.

However: Since Slack is faster at providing live Support but not as good when it comes to save and show known Issues, we kindly ask you to open a Topic at our Discourse group. This will provide Help for others in the future.

Discourse Discourse

Our Board might already have your fix and answer ready. Have a look!

General Note: Please provide some Logs to make it easier for all of us. Enable Debug by manually starting diyHue with additional --debug true argument.

Stability

Starting in Dec. 2020 we will introduce one Master and one Dev Branch. The Master will have the most stable code.

If you want to tinker and experiment you can try the dev Branch. Active development will take place here.

You want to get the latest features? Try the experimental Branch. Use at own Risk!

Please post on our Slack team any other device/application that you find to work with this emulator.
