| Onboarding Home Assistant | Instructions to get Home Assistant configured. |
Alright, you made it here. The tough part is done.
With Home Assistant installed, it's time to configure it. Here you will create the owner account of Home Assistant. This account will be an administrator and will always be able to change everything. Enter a name, username, password and select create account.
Next, you can enter a name for your home and set your location and unit system. Select Detect to find your location and set your time zone and unit system based on that location. If you'd rather not send your location, you can set these values manually.
Once you are done, click Next. In this screen, Home Assistant will show any {% term devices %} that it has discovered on your network. Don't be alarmed if you see fewer items than shown below; you can always manually add devices later.
Finally, click Finish. Now you're brought to the Home Assistant web interface. This screen will show all of your devices. So let's get that screen filled up!
From the side bar, click on {% my integrations title="Settings > Devices & Services" %}. On this screen, you will be able to set up {% term integrations %} with Home Assistant.
When each integration is done setting up, it will ask you to put the new devices in areas. Areas allow you to organize all the devices in your home.
When you're done, navigate back to the web interface and voila, your devices are ready for you to control.
