Are there any decent open source alternatives or should I be looking to go down the building route?

I am a coding newbie so would be a bit daunting!

if your goal is to automate your home (or lab, or work place) I also would highly recommend Home Assistant but I hesitated to recommend it anyone since OP didn't really explained what they actually want to with it

i.e. if your goal is automate rss feeds and notifications than Home Assistant ist just completely overkill for this task
