Build a Daily Briefing in Home Assistant

If you want to build a daily briefing or newsflash in home Assistant Macros can help you organize your information so that it flows better when read by your Text to speech integration or is displayed on your Lovelace dashboard. And in this video I show you how I did on my system. We are talking Jinja, Macros, and using data from another file in an automation.
