It’s been a few years so I don’t remember exactly, but basically I used to use ControllerMate (like autohotkey but not awful) and when it died I went in search of other nodal programming tools. Never found a good replacement for CM, but node-red is amazing in its own way.
When HA wa much younger I played with node red as an alternative to its built in automation language, but the HA automations quickly got “good enough” that I didnt go with it.
Thanks for sharing - I had heard of Node-red but didn’t know much about it. How did you find it?
