Dimmer Switch for EU renter (sopuli.xyz)

I'm looking into setting up a home assistant smart lighting system just like this person has although they use the Lutron Aurora dimmer which isn't made to be placed on top of EU light switches.

Is there a Dimmer switch that works for EU? I have found alternatives but they all require removal of the switch already in the wall rather than placing on top, which isn't very renter friendly

Check Ikea. They've got a whole range of led lighting that has its own wireless control system.

Can be controlled by individual paired controllers, and there's also a central controller option. Istr that there was integration with a number of home systems.

There are lots of complaints about the Ikea remotes draining battery quickly.
