I too have developed a personal node-red based HA hub. And I will continue to enhance it as well for my personal needs.
But I was contemplating, that if I and others like yourself are spending time to develop a node-red based hub for ourselves, what could we accomplish working on a project together.
That is basically why I am trying to gauge interest.

I can't find an Open Source ZigBee interface for Linux
A couple of thoughts that I have had for a user interface.
A fire tablet. With the new ones (2017) you can have Alexa always on so they will work just like an echo dot. I am assuming that they would display the dashboard very nicely.
I have also been talking with the developer of Action Tiles. Currently action tiles only works with a Smart Things hub. He mentioned that if we can code a compliant smart things device handler then actions tiles would work well with it. Most of the coding that I have done to date is creating device handlers. So I am fairly familiar with it.
The biggest UI question that I have is secured remote access. Currently I can control my whole house from my iPhone. I would not want to give that up.

Like Andy, I tried and discarded all of the other HA Platforms as either too limited or too complex (usually both). Node-Red is "just right" (with the right dashboard). I've recently been experimenting with the Nextion touch-screen display to use as a wall-mounted dashboard, and it will be Grandma-tested. (If Grandma can figure how to use it, it passes the test). The Nextion connected to a NodeMCU which will communicate with Node-Red using MQTT messages.

I agree on the easy to use design tool. That is what has kept me away from some of the open source solutions.
I have not used Action Tiles yet, but I believe it is more of a drag and drop interface. If we can create the device handlers like I mentioned in the other post I think it would be a good solution set.

Yes for sure, very important. I use a vpn that safeguards this. But do you mean you would like to have some biometric device as well for logon purpose? If you use an Iphone (or Ipad I presume), that is built in then
A very important UI "thing" for me would be if I could use a more powerful design tool where I can position all my buttons, text labels, radio buttons, video viewers, log window etc etc via drag & drop from a tool bar. Then import that artwork into the Node-RED UI somehow, magic it would be. Currently I still fall-back to my "old" web gui made years ago, it's the fact, I could not get enough familiar with the UI. I guess it is, at least for me, because you cannot easily control the positions and sizes of the various graphic components

I too seem to have quite a few side projects. But I thought if a handful of us got together and divide up the workload it not only would be fun but we could end up with a very nice product.

Command Fusion, I had not heard that name in quite a while. But I remember playing with it a while ago.
So I looked up my account and I purchased a license back in 2012!!!
I will have to re-review it.

Bart,
I was just looking at Command Fusion a bit more. It is a little pricier then when I bought a license in 2012. 😊
I noticed that the blog has not been updated for 1.5 years. Are they still active with new releases, etc?

I will definitely set some sort of common communication up.
Is a wiki the best way?
I will do a little research and talk with one of my product managers.
Ron – I too am using Homeseer. I purchased one of their small hardware devices. It works pretty slick although I am not too happy with what seems to be their lack of getting out of the 80s with their technology.

For those of you who are interested, I have set up a feng office server. It was recommended to me so I thought I would give it a try.
Shoot me an email and I can send you the ip address. I put it on a micro server on AWS.
I think this will be fun and very interesting.
