The `demo` platform allows you to use components which are providing a demo of their implementation. The demo entities are dummies but show you how the actual platform looks like. This way you can run own demonstration instance like the online [Home Assistant demo](/demo/) or `hass --demo-mode` but combined with your own real/functional platforms.
Available demo platforms:
- [Alarm control panel](/components/alarm_control_panel/) (`alarm_control_panel`)
- [Binary sensor](/components/binary_sensor/) (`binary_sensor`)
- [Camera](/components/camera/) (`camera`)
- [Climate](/components/climate/) (`climate`)
- [Cover](/components/cover/) (`cover`)
- [Fan](/components/fan/) (`fan`)
- [Image Processing](/components/image_processing/) (`image_processing`)
- [Light](/components/light/) (`light`)
- [Lock](/components/lock/) (`lock`)
- [Notification](/components/notify/) (`notify`)
- [Remote](/components/remote/) (`remote`)
- [Sensor](/components/sensor/) (`sensor`)
- [Switch](/components/switch/) (`switch`)
- [Text-to-speech](/components/tts/) (`tts`)
- [Weather](/components/weather/) (`weather`)
- [Mailbox](/components/mailbox/) (`mailbox`)
To integrate a demo platform in Home Assistant, add the following section to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
[component]:
- platform: demo
```
Configuration variables:
- **[component]** (*Required*): The name of the component as stated in the listing above the configuration example.
