Home Assistant Operating System

Home Assistant Operating System (formerly HassOS) is a Linux based operating system optimized to host Home Assistant and its Add-ons.

Home Assistant Operating System uses Docker as its container engine. By default it deploys the Home Assistant Supervisor as a container. Home Assistant Supervisor in turn uses the Docker container engine to control Home Assistant Core and Add-Ons in separate containers. Home Assistant Operating System is not based on a regular Linux distribution like Ubuntu. It is built using Buildroot and it is optimized to run Home Assistant. It targets single board compute (SBC) devices like the Raspberry Pi or ODROID but also supports x86-64 systems with UEFI.

Features

  • Lightweight and memory-efficient
  • Minimized I/O
  • Over The Air (OTA) updates
  • Offline updates
  • Modular using Docker container engine

Supported hardware

  • Nabu Casa
  • Raspberry Pi
  • Hardkernel ODROID
  • Asus Tinker Board
  • Generic x86-64 (e.g. Intel NUC)
  • Virtual appliances

Development

If you don't have experience with embedded systems, Buildroot or the build process for Linux distributions it is recommended to read up on these topics first (e.g. Bootlin has excellent resources).
