I want to challenge all the community developers on here to help me build the ultimate Halloween SmartApp.
Let’s all pitch in, and develop this together and make it the “Killer” (see what I did there…) SmartApp for one day… October 31st!
Even if you aren’t a developer, just a dreamer… Let me know what you want in the Ultimate Halloween SmartApp.
This app can be viewed as the ultimate tutorial on how to do almost anything within Smartthings…
A thing gets triggered, trigger another thing…
-Flash the lights
-Dim the lights
-Play a sound via sonos
-Get Ubi to speak something
-Send an API command to something
-Open/Close a relay
-Flip an outlet switch
Generate random numbers, mess with the things, lets just take a dream and make it a nightmare…
I started a github and put it up here… With a start of the smartapp…
The idea is that this SmartApp will be built collectively.
Add your ideas to the comments in the code. Take a stab at trying to write it. This will be done as a group effort.
If you see something that can be improved, do it.
Don’t be afraid of it. We can’t really break anything doing it… Well, maybe, but that means we found a bug or two…
Heck, we might even find some limitations in ST that given the next 2 months, maybe ST can add or fix these things before the 1 day this app will function…
Keep the ideas coming, but more importantly, fork it, commit your changes, I’ll merge them in and we will have the ultimate Halloween 1 day usage SmartApp.
OMG guys I was just thinking about this. I wish I could help, but I’ve been having problems learning to develop apps with smart things. Is there any really good documentation to start this? I wanted to have the default light be white, and as someone approaches the light will go out, sonos will start playing moaning sounds, fog machine starts bellowing fog, inflatable monsters inflate and then the strobe turns on with a loud scream from the sonos and hue turning red.
