HACS offers great additions to the functionality of HA, but there are so many options it feels overwhelming. What are your favorite HACS?

The ones I need, otherwise I always prefer core HA elements if possible.

With recently UI improvements in HA I have actually removed several HACS

The ideal case for me is that I don't need HACS at all. My experience has been the same - I've happily been able to switch to core HA components and stop using HACS ones. It's great to see HA is not idle with success, they are continuing to make new features even when backwards compatibility may break.
