These lights will likely support the Matter standard when it becomes available and you should be able to use any Matter library to communicate with the device. So it doesn't seem useful to me to have a specific library for these Nanoleaf lights.
While I don’t disagree that the lights will likely support matter at some point in the future, that doesn’t really handle the period until they do.
Matter isn’t shipping yet and even when it does, it may take several more months for nanoleaf and home assistant to get through their own integration of the matter libraries and certification with the CSA before they’re able to actually communicate.

@milanmeu. Nanoleaf has officially stated that these will not have matter support (https://press.nanoleaf.me/2022/04/01/nanoleaf-and-matter/).
Nanoleaf recently brought out the essentials line of products. There are light strips and bulbs which run over both bluetooth and thread. If a user has a thread border router, it is possible to interface to the bulbs via IP networking. Some work to detail this is available at https://github.com/roysjosh/nanoleaf-ltpdu.
It would be fantastic to add support into this library to enable the home assistant integration.
