# zimi

> zimi is a built-in integration for Home Assistant. It has 37 installs sharing analytics and works locally.

Zimi is a built-in integration that connects Home Assistant to a Zimi controller over the local network. It adds covers, fans, lights, sensors and switches to Home Assistant. One of the sensors reports the outside temperature. Setup happens in the UI, where the controller's IP address and port number are entered, with a default port provided. Nothing extra needs to be installed, since the integration ships with Home Assistant.
