I'd like to turn my ceiling light on/off verbally. I don't want a clapper or Siri/Alexa solution. But my Google search came up empty. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

How techy are you? I'm running home assistant with local voice control but it takes some work to set up

I watched a YouTube video about Home Assistant with Local Voice Control and found it far more capable and complex than what I needed. I'm simply looking for The Clapper with voice command from a wall light switch.
