It depends how your lights work. DC or AC, PWM or current control, etc. There is no common way.

I understand. However, from the configuration homekit_accessory_t *accessories[] of the device, for a simple switch, in HomeKit app it only shows two states, how can I configure a dimmer.
If you have an example for a DC dimmer, I would very much appreciate, I think from There I can understand the logic and extend it

Refer to the HAP doc. See legcy/simple_led to know how to define a light_bulb with brightness control.

I'm new to this project, why are all the LED examples legacy?

You need to define your switch as a lightbulb instead if you want a dimmer control in HomeKit.

this is my code so far, but i only get a switch, no dimming option on ios. any hints?

#include <homekit/homekit.h>

homekit_characteristic_t cha_name = HOMEKIT_CHARACTERISTIC_(NAME, "Dimmer");
homekit_characteristic_t cha_bright = HOMEKIT_CHARACTERISTIC_(BRIGHTNESS, 50);

Your HOMEKIT_SERVICE needs to be “LIGHTBULB” not SWITCH
