Adding Device Handler from Git hub for non dev

[Autoboof (Chris)]

I have never used Git Hub before, how difficult would it be for me to add a device handler from Git hub? Can I do it on my phone?

I bought some Xaiomi devices and just want to use them…

Thanks

It depends on if you are adding through a repository, or doing the copy/paste method. I know there’s a tutorial around here somewhere. If I can find it quickly I’ll post it, otherwise I think someone else will be along with it handy.
