LinkPlay devices integration for Home Assistant
Collaborators wanted! This component was transferred to this repository to save from death as a result of moral obsolescence of the code. But now I don’t have the opportunity to fully support it and develop the code.
If you can help with developing this component, I will be very grateful to you. Please, message to me.
