Install the hub¶
The hub is the heart of nn. It serves the web app you use for everything else, keeps the device database and the firmware catalog, provisions new devices over Bluetooth, runs automations and delivers over-the-air updates.
Pick your machine:
Orange Pi 6 Plus
Supported. The reference machine: hub and media server on one board, with hardware video and an NPU.
Mac mini · x86 PC · Raspberry Pi
Planned. What will differ, and what to watch for if you try it now.
What every hub needs¶
Linux with systemd. Debian 12 (bookworm) is what nn is tested on.
Python 3.10 or newer.
A Bluetooth Low Energy adapter that BlueZ can use (BlueZ 5.66 or newer recommended).
A fixed address on your network.
