In this video we will be running through the setup process for Local Tuya. We will also be having a look at some of the differences between using the Tuya Cloud service and using Local Tuya. This is just a brief comparison with no techy specs.
Local Tuya is away of accessing your Tuya devices locally. There are other options available too.
Did you find the Easter Egg in todays episode?

The Tuya Dev Website has been a little unstable and had a lot of issues the past few days. I ran into a fair few problems during this process so it's not 100% full proof. If enough people are interested I can show another method for setting up Local Tuya that doesn't need the Tuya Developer account / website.

Problems following some steps ?
Because I ran into a few issues I have also put together a quick video separate to this one showing some issues and fixes.
You can check that out here:
https://youtu.be/t2S2KLtDj7IWhy is this separate? - Not everyone will have these problems (some are website specific so may be resolved by now or in the future) so I didn't want to fill the video with unnecessary issues and fixes
Local Tuya is not a standard integration. You will need to have HACS installed to access it. Check my links below for info on how to install HACS.
