Thank you, @sihui!
Further investigation has led me to find that there are 4 main approaches;
- Do everything in PaperUI, and edit the JSON file if tweaks are required

…If you need to edit a thing, you still can do this outside PaperUI, as the JSON storage files are human readable and editable.
- Use PaperUI/HABmin for discovery, and things configuration, use .items and .rules for the rest. Some people copy/paste item info from PaperUI to build .item files

I’ve grouped my rules and items on files.
Items mainly targeting to bindings and rules targeting types (light, shutter, and heating…)
-
The fully manual approach as you have helpfully referenced above
-
Use Home Builder to define sitemap and items
I am currently leaning to #1, and will see if that is viable.
