The Hue Browser Controller

Introduction

The Hue Browser Controller is a website that enables you to control your Philips Hue lighting right from the website. It requires no install of software and runs locally. I other words it is a static website which means it can run independently of a web server and run just as it is stored. This means that if you have downloaded the site you can even control your lighting without a public internet connection.
