Requires Philips Hue Bridge on local network (auto-discovered)
First run requires pressing the button on the Hue Bridge to pair
Mirek: lower = cooler/bluer (153 = 6500K daylight), higher = warmer (500 = 2000K candlelight)
Not all bulbs support color — white ambiance bulbs only do temperature
Scenes are room-specific presets configured in the Hue app
Room names are case-insensitive
Can control lights individually even when they're part of a room group
