How to organize home assistant configuration files?

 

Keep configuration.yaml clean – only include high-level includes and global settings.

 

Use !include and !include_dir_* to split configuration into folders.

 

Separate per-domain (e.g. lights, sensors, automations) or per-room.

 

Use YAML anchors & secrets to avoid repetition and store sensitive data safely.

 

Version control with Git for backups and change tracking. git series detail
