Let's set up an AWESOME RADIO PLAYER in Home Assistant! If you have smart speakers in your home, you can easily play music on those using Home Assistant. You can use Music Assistant for this, but I wanted to have something that looked a little bit sexier. In my case, I listen a lot to radio stations and I wanted to create a music player on my dashboard for every room in which I have smart speakers. It's not only possible to play radio stations, but also playlists from Spotify for Example. Today I will focus on setting up this music player in Home Assistant that plays your favorite radio stations.
