That's the reason I set up Home Assistant. I'm not smart enough for wiring.

Wiring a staircase switch is actually very easy, you pretty much just need two wires going from one switch to another and then a light.

Your light switches also has to be three way switches but afaik most switches in my country are that, so you can pretty much use any switch.

I was gonna say lol that's a fancy way of describing three-ways

Fun fact, you can put as many 4-ways in between those 3-ways as you want, or as many as your electrician will agree to anyway. You can switch the same light from a dozen spots if you really want to.

"The light won't turn off! Now to hunt down the ONE SWITCH in the house that's flipped...hnngg...."

Troll electricianship would be hilarious entertainment.
