Write a Home Assistant [0] integration and suddenly you will gain a large set of followers who will also get it into the other closed systems.

In fact it does work with Home Assistant (which is a fantastic platform) :

It's already supported as a blemonitor device

Curious what “other closed systems” means. I’ve used OpenHAB but is home assistant not open source? I haven’t used it yet.

I meant that if you get it working in Home Assistant (FOSS) then the path to Amazon, Google, Apple (closed systems) is easier.
