Open Source alternative to IFTTT? (beehaw.org)

Are there any decent open source alternatives or should I be looking to go down the building route?

I am a coding newbie so would be a bit daunting!

What are you looking to automate? Home Assistant does a lot of things that could have been done with IFTTT.

In all honesty nothing in particular, moreso that I want to explore what's possible. I used IFTTT for things like switching WiFi on when my phone was in a specific location, saving emails with receipts/order confirmations to somewhere central like Google Drive (though trying to find a non-google alternative). I also liked the Pocket integration.

Cryptpad is a decent google workspace alternative. Nextcloud is a popular one, but I've always had some problems with it.

We have Nextcloud on our lan. Works fine for us.
