We hope you will find all the information you are looking for, here are some of the most asked questions:
Smartnest is a Web service that allows Home Automation enthusiasts to connect their own devices with voice assistants like Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Siri, IFTTT and more, it has been tested with some devices using Arduino IDE but also other devices like STM32 microcontrollers, the service uses MQTT to send and receive information from your device, so you only need MQTT library and you will have access to all the services.
Let's say you just built a nice system that opens and closes your curtains,it would be nice to control it using your voice, or from your phone, or from a web browser, or just using any of your devices in the way that is more convenient for you, but this would require you to program your device to connect to each service, probably set up your own server, configure it in a safe way, manage web requests, and so on... or you can just sign up and use Smartnest, you can have it running in less than 10 minutes.
A nest is a combination of twigs and leaves, is the place where birds sleep and feel protected but most importantly it is made completely by them, they go every day looking for the best twigs and anything that can improve it. Everyone is talking today about Smart Homes and Smart Houses, but we like to think about them as Smart nests since it is you, the user who takes the time to go out there get component by component build something from your own and configure it.
