ZigBee RGB Lightbulb w/o 3rd party app (lemmy.ml)

Any recommendations for a ZigBee RGB Lightbulb w/o 3rd party app - at least not a closed source app.

I heard the Phillips Hue works well but I'd like to be able to install and configure the bulbs with Home Assistant (or another open source app at a minimum). Any suggestions?

Hue bulbs works with home assistant without relying on the hue bridge or app. Just need a zigbee USB adapter.

Ikea also makes some decent bulbs for a fraction of the price.

Thanks for the suggestions. Do the IKEA bulbs work with HA out of the box or do they need an IKEA app?

They just work.
