Ideas for new openHAB installation experience

The problem with 1 is that a Script Action wouldn’t be the appropriate approach. A simple UI rule without any code, not even Blockly, would be the appropriate way to do that. The same goes for 3. One could argue that 5 would best be implemented using two simple UI rules, one for Tuesday and another for Wednesday.

Only 2 and 4 cannot be done with simple UI rules, 2 because there is no “delay” action and 4 because simple rule conditions don’t support days of the month.

I don’t like the idea of creating an example or examples that doesn’t show the most appropriate way to implement something, even if it’s only for instructive purposes.

Also, turning on/off a light based on a schedule is not very compelling when it comes to automation. I feel like we need more “wow” that shows off a little more automation and interaction between stuff that normally wouldn’t be able to interact or does something that the typical apps that usually control the lights cannot do.

Maybe something like Presence Simulation [4.0.0.0;4.9.9.9], or Virtual Solar Light Sensor [4.0.0.0;4.9.9.9], or Smart Doorbell only in blockly.
