In this video I walk through the process of setting up a Raspberry Pi kiosk for Home Assistant. I'm using the Sunfounder TS7 Pro kit in this video but the process will work for any display or touchscreen connected for the Pi.
A smart home kiosk is a great way to view information and interact with your smart home.

Grab a Pi, grab a touchscreen, and give it a try!

Although I am using the TS7 Pro, this video is not sponsored or related to Sunfounder.
