About:
Lighting is a native macOS application that provides a Notification Center widget for controlling LIFX smart lights. It allows users to manage light states directly from the notification panel without needing to open a separate application or web interface. The tool offers quick access to power, brightness, and color controls for a streamlined smart home experience.
Key Features:
  • Native Notification Center widget integration
  • Control LIFX power, brightness, and color
  • Simple and lightweight interface
  • No browser required for light management
Use Cases:
  • Quickly dim lights while watching movies without leaving your current app
  • Toggle smart lights on/off from the desktop for improved workflow focus
Alternatives:
  • LIFX Official App – Official app offers more features but requires full window focus
  • Home Assistant – More powerful automation but significantly more complex setup
