Mine have always been a bit functional, and I’m curious what more creative people have achieved.
Anyone fancy showing off what they’ve put together? Feel free to blank out personal information, obviously.
And on another note, I’m now moderating this sub. Hi!
Let me know if there is anything you’d like to see added to the sidebar, I’m aiming to update it over the next few days.
Mine’s mobile-friendly:
On top are reminders and common buttons, such as turn off all lights, open/close all shutters.
In the main body, each line is a room, the bulbs next to the room either turn off all lights in the room or turn them all on. If you press on the room name you can expand that room and control the devices inside:
Some devices can be expanded as well:
I also have pages for climate control and power management (the last one was created before HA implemented their own “Energy” page):
Recently I’ve started integrating my 3d printers in HA, but it’s still pretty rough. Super cool to have them light up when I walk in the room tho.
What are you using for reminders and what cards are those? Need this to not forget the trash 🤓
They’re all custom:button-cards with specific css and conditional cards to make them appear/disappear
I like the expanding room cards. Can you share how you’re accomplishing that?
They are conditional cards that whose condition is activated by pressing the room name. Unfortunately the only way I have found to pass a condition is to use an input boolean helper, which means that when one person opens a card, it opens for all users. Not a huge deal but annoying; I’ve asked for alternatives on the HA forum but I received no satisfying answer, the best solution would probably be to create a custom card.
You could check out expander card. I use it for a weather section on my dashboard.

Editing the card is really buggy for me and I’m not sure the project is still open, given the note at the bottom about the issue tracker… but after it’s configured, the card has been very solid.
Thank you
If you do end up trying it, let me know if you run into the issue of the UI constantly “refreshing” while editing and ruining your changes. I’m not sure how widespread the issue is.
Cool! Perhaps you want to censor all photos :)
Right. Not that it matters anyway, you can’t delete images from Lemmy servers.
