I guess that my message wasn’t clear but by “component” I meant a home automation component.

I have the following containers in my HA installation:

• Home assistant
• Node red
• MQTT
• Zigbee2mqtt
• Esphome

And maybe others that I have forgotten.

Each had to be installed manually by adding it to my docker compose file, mapping drives, and editing config files.

Most, if not all, of them (except HA) can be installed from within HA if you’re using HAOS.
