Hi,

I am currently experimenting with Pi Zero W, which is a Raspberry Pi
board with minimal configuration and has a very small form factor and
has wifi.

Raspberry Pi is a good generic board. But for specific applications like
Home Automation etc. we probably don't need a generic board. As of now
we could think of only few functions that the board must
support. Example,

1. Switch on/off something
2. Report status
3. Support for external sensors
4. Low power (must survive a couple of months without charging)

If anyone of you have worked on similar applications then please suggest
me some alternates. I want a really tiny system to be fixed into a
cabinets along with 3-4 sensors and battery.

Regards.
