<p>
Add-ons allow the user to extend the functionality around Home
Assistant by installing additional applications.
</p>
<p>
This can be running an application that Home Assistant can integrate with
(like an MQTT broker) or to share the configuration via Samba for easy editing
from other computers. Add-ons can be configured via the Supervisor panel in Home
Assistant.
</p>

Add-ons for Home Assistant are freely available in the add-on store.
</p>
<p>
To install add-ons, navigate to the Supervisor panel in your Home Assistant
frontend, and click on the "ADD-ON STORE" tab. All add-ons, including their documentation, are available right from the store.
Some advanced add-ons will only be visible after you opt-in to "Advanced Mode" which can be changed on your user profile page.
Click on a add-on you are interested in, to read the documentation or to install the add-on.
</p>
<p class="note">
Add-ons are only available if you've used the Home Assistant installer. If you
installed Home Assistant using any other method then you cannot use add-ons
(but you can achieve the same result manually).
