It is automation of the home, housework or household activity.

Home automation may include centralized control of lighting, HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning), appliances, security locks of gates and doors and other systems, to provide improved convenience, comfort, energy efficiency and security.

No Neutral Switches (2024?) (alien.top)

I've done some reading on no-nrutral switches, but several of the posts have been from a few years ago. As were nearly in 2024 are there any newer options or recommendations?

Some requirements:

On/off and Dimmer switches
Manageable or no minimum wattage (to avoid having to add additional hardware)
Ease of use and "normal"-ish appearance
