Zigbee or similar wireless water, smoke, etc

Last asked in 2019. I’m sure use cases have been updated

Looking for Zigbee or similar support to add a plethora of sensors to mine and other installs. Water detection, smoke, switches.

I see where you can install a second pi on your network running Home Assistant but would prefer to run it off one system.

Already have the Ruuvi tags and Mopeka sensors, just want more functionality.

Most people are switching to using node red, then working functions like that through the network that way.

Are you saying a Zigbee USB dongle will be able to see and configure sensors like water detection?

As already mentioned nodered has integrations to everything, it is just a bit more manual to configure than HA, so depends how comfortable you are with a bit of light integration work/setup.

Dashboard 2.0 on nodered is quite pleasing to the eye, so you can make some nice displays. Tweaking CSS enhances this further.
