z-wave gateway

Do I need a z-wave gateway to controle a z-wave plug with Homey ?
Or can Homey control the z-wave plugs (and other) by himself (without a gateway) ?

The same for other "Home Hub"s  Do I need this or does Homey speaks directly with the plugs, lamps (Hue) and others ?
Thanks

    No, homey can control z-wave actors himself without other Gateaways. Phillips hue needs the phillips bridge, in the Future maybe homey can control hue lamps without the bridge. You may have to say what do you mean with others specally, than we can say what do you need for this

    Thanks for your answer.
    "You may have to say what do you mean with others specally, than we can say what do you need for this" :
    For the Osram Lightify  (Lamp with a Gateway), do I need this Gateway ?

    @PacoS ;
    Zigbee is one of the few that can't be controlled directly (like nest and lightify), but might be able tho in the future.
