The Inovelli Blue Series Fan & Light Canopy Module (VZM36) installs inside a ceiling-fan canopy to give independent Zigbee 3.0 control of the fan motor and a dimmable light. It pairs locally over ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT and is typically bound to a Blue Series wall switch.

These recipes are built around other hardware, and pick this device up as an optional extra.
Motion Hallway Light
Installs a Home Assistant automation that turns a hallway or landing light on when motion is seen and off again once the space has been still for a grace period you set. Add a light sensor and it only runs after dark, add a presence sensor and it holds the light while someone lingers.
Movie Mode
Installs a Home Assistant automation that dims the lights when the TV starts playing and brings them back when it stops. Add shades to close, a soundbar to power on, a scene button to trigger it by hand, and dimmable accent lights.
Presence Room Lighting
Installs a Home Assistant automation that keeps a room's lights on for as long as an mmWave presence sensor sees someone in it, and switches them off shortly after the room empties. Add a light sensor to run only after dark, and dimmable lights that come up softly.
