I've been trying to get Zigbee python libs to work without having to use Home Assistant, and have had so many problems. I'd love to see some lighterweight examples that actually work. I've downloaded a dozen GitHub projects based on various gateway chips I've bought, and they are all outdated. Compared to BLE, it's trickier to get ZigBee working, at least that's been my experience. Too bad because I like the idea of having a mesh rather than relying a -112 dB Rx BLE receiver in my gateway.
Its Home Assistant or nothing, which is frustrating because HA is so overweight for what I need to do.
