This Smart Home Dashboard Isn't Easy But It's Worth It...

[@EverythingSmartHome]

It's finally here, hope you all enjoy this one - make sure to keep tagging me in photos of your sweet dashboards you've been making, I've been loving seeing them! P.s - I added the final code I finished with at the end of this video to the description if you need it for reference!

[@hnefeenstra]

Hi @13:56 you added a '-' sign in front of !include, but 2seconds later this '-'sign was gone again. I found out the moment I added the '-' back in, since I literatly followed your video the card came up :). So the '-' you have not in the rest of the video should be there to work!?!

​@@hnefeenstra Thank you for the help. I spent more than 2 hours scratching my head over this, but after seeing your comment, I was able to resolve it easily.

I love that you've contributed your cards back to the community! I'll be using most of them, thanks Lewis!

[@EverythingSmartHome]

Thanks Jelle, appreciate it!

[@Ceteex]

Just to make things easier, you do not need to restart home assistant every time you add a custom card. You can always go into developer tools and then restart "UI LOVELACE MINIMALIST". This way is much faster and easier than restarting HA every time a new custom card is added.

[@ymh-productions998]

I love the in depth video! so much has changed in HA since then, i keep running into errors or things not matching what the video is showing. can you please make an updated video?

[@elektrontabancasi]

I hate this too. All youtube videos are completely garbage due to this design change..

[@kroezej2475]

I followed this video today and got everything working, if theres anything youre running into feel free to ask, im still a noobie to HA but i got it working luckily.

[@sdfhjklhsfdjdsflhkds]

Brilliant! I watched this video once, thought about Minimalist yaml versus Mushroom cards and decided to take the plunge. I had 95% of my new Minimalist UI done in a few hours. No doubt the remaining 5% (mostly endless polishing and tweaking) will take me another 20-30 hours, but you gave me the insights I needed to pull this off. I've been using HA for a long time and had zero issues with complex automations, but the UI side always seemed very daunting indeed. Thanks Lewis for showing my a clear path on how to get there!

[@EverythingSmartHome]

Nice one, glad it didn't take too long but yes be prepared to sink many hours into that 5% 😆

[@pl0nk0r]

Excellent video Lewis, I've been using mushroom but will definately give minilimist a go. Very detailed and easy to follow explanations. I'd love to see you go into detail on creating your own custom cards.😀

[@RuudSpreeuwenberg]

Thanks for the this great video guide Lewis! I watched and I am getting ready to build my minimalist dashbaord. In the video description however you link to a written article. I thought this could be helpful for all the required installs, however the link only shows me an article loop archive on your website.

[@robinrummens4087]

For people experiencing the following error: "Button-card template 'card_esh_welcome' is missing! For me, reloading the YAML configurations solved this issue.

[@supertom44]

Brilliant thanks, ran into this issue and reloading YAML worked.

[@fredericmelancon4472]

sadly it is not working for me. Do you have any other suggestion by any chance ?

[@gegeabscons9418]

For multiple views to work, you mustn't do as in the video at 13:25 and delete the views: !include_dir_merge_list "views/" line, but keep it and uncomment it by deleting the # and the space. This tells Minimalist that the various views are in the "views" folder. Then, when creating a view, paste the entire block and don't forget the dash and space before "title". Create a file for each view using the same procedure but with a different name, and add an icon if you like. This example works for me: - title: "Home" path: "home" icon: "mdi:home-assistant" cards: - type: "custom:button-card" template: "card_esh_welcome" triggers_update: "input_boolean.minimalist_dropdown" variables: ulm_card_esh_welcome_collapse: input_boolean.minimalist_dropdown ulm_weather: "weather.your.weather" entity_1: nav: "house" icon: "mdi:home" name: "House" color: "blue" entity_2: nav: "lights" icon: "mdi:lightbulb" name: "Lights" color: "yellow" entity_3: nav: "security" icon: "mdi:shield" name: Secure color: "green" entity_4: nav: "network" icon: "mdi:nas" name: Lab color: "purple" entity_5: nav: "network" icon: "mdi:flask" name: Lab color: "red"

It is amazing how quickly custom card names and indexing changes. My-Card slider is tough to locate.

[@EverythingSmartHome]

Check the links in the video description

[@fredericmelancon4472]

did you find my-slider ?

[@tfdsu]

Lewis, regarding a "Back" button. Personally I find it too small to be comfortable, especially under certain circumstations (big hands, health-troubled hands, a lefty, etc), so I removed it. instead, I replicated "House/Lights/Secure/Net/Lab" top menu on every page, and also placed small "Home" chip to the lft from weather chip, taking me to the home overview page. Now navigation is a breeze, I can visit any page from any page without moving back, plus, transitions now are fluent, resembling a native iOS app, especially in kiosk mode, which you can enable for mobile app exclusively.

[@ChristianThanninger]

Thanks for this great tutorial :) I encountered a problem with the Thermostat Card. It shows my current temperature and also the correct set temperature but when I press the + or - buttons I get this error: "Provided temperature 0.0 is not valid. Accepted range is 5.0 to 30.0. " This happens for all the different rooms. When I click on the set temperature to open the more detailed card with the dial control, this works without error.

[@Ceteex]

At 27:33, if the light icon in the right corner of the room card doesn't show up, it's because changes to the card have been made since this video was released. You will have to these 2 lines of code in the room card: variables: ulm_custom_card_esh_room_light_entity: light.your_light

[@SadisticSacred]

Hi Lewis, great video. I am just setting up my own dashboard and it is coming along very nice, based on all the great explanations in your video. One thing that I have not figured out yet is how to make those "entities" in the welcome card act as links to other pages. So e.g. for the lights and the labs. What would I have to do in the yaml to bring me to a view with all my lights when clicking on the "lights" button? Thanks and keep up the great work

[@yevhenshaina3673]

"My card slider" is not available neither in HACS nor via Github page for manual installation. Is there a replacement or other solution? Solved: to install it first you need to add a custom repository in HACS.

[@Ankitkumar-cl8xw]

how??

[@ShavedAp3]

Love this its really helpful thank you as always. I don't appear to have any colours currently but I haven't finished everything so I guess I will try and figure that out later

[@darrenoleary]

At 15:17 where Lewis clicks the + symbol to create a new dashboard, where do I do this in a new install (I never used mushroom). I've followed the instructions upto this point, but when I refresh the Minimalist dashboard populated in my left hand menu, the Welcome ESH card isn't displayed. The cards originally displayed before deleting the examples as per Lewis' guide, but the new car doesn't display, even after restarting.

[@ALaModePi]

"Not easy, but worth it." Agreed. I'd say the same about my dashboard. It makes liberal use of the button card and decluttering templates as well as browser mod. At this level, the _only_ way to do this is yaml code. It was a lot of work getting it exactly the way I like it, but the final result is easy to use, quick, and intuitive enough that my wife and daughter, who are not at all interested in learning the intricacies of of home automation will use it.

[@stevehubbard8459]

Excellent stuff. Great work. Thank you.

[@Helen_Pearson]

I like how you explain it however I’ve got home assistant green and it looks a lot different. Can you do a tutorial on how to do this on the HA Green please.

[@surferdudemi]

It would be helpful to highlight that you switched from Integrations to Frontend before you added Button Card. I couldn't find it and kept reviewing that part of the video. Then I noticed that you clicked on Frontend, and then I could find them. My Cards (my-cards-slider) seems to be gone.

[@surferdudemi]

Once it reloads / restarts, the Minimalist layouts are both showing that grid-layout is missing, as with my-cards. I was able to find the my-cards repository later, but still does not show up in the search, so could not load it.

[@andypaulusma3523]

Thanks for the great video! I was having a lot of trouble getting the graphs to show up on the bathroom card. I found your final code is missing the "entity" line for the graph cards, adding this in fixed it for me (in case others have the same issue): - type: 'custom:button-card' template: card_graph entity: sensor.upstairs_bathroom_temperature

[@russellcorbett5395]

What happens at the jump at 19:25? I got to that step but I do not know what to change to get the top to reappear

[@meierthomas]

I finally managed to get the framework up and I'm busy roaming around in yaml code. Lewis mentions a few times this is largely the same as the mushroom version with a few changes. In a nutshell what does one lose by going mushroom instead of minimalist (in your case)? Yes there are lots of custom cards on minimalist but the question is related to the dashboard Lewis built. Thanks again for the great video and getting my out of the "train station".

I restored my HASS config to a new instance but missed something because my custom_cards are not found automatically. I have the same folder structure as you, installed with hacs in same folder. I can only point to one button card template folder so I just moved my custom cards in the minimalist folder. This will get wiped by updates for sure so not a sustainable option. Any thoughts?

Hello! I'm starting out with Home Assistant, and when I try to follow the video creating the dashboard I'm stuck at a point that must be very stupid. At 17:24, an error appears and does something to clear the error. What do I have to do to be able to delete it? Thank you very much for the help.

[@talesmaschio]

Lewis, thank you so much for this tutorial, it's what convinced me to try Minimalist and I loved it. One question: would it be possible to have an indicator on the room card when there are other lights on in a room? The card itself changes color when the main entity is on, but there are no indications of other lights on in that room. This would be useful to check on a glance if all lights are off.

[@proshadow1491]

I'm following along step by step, but am getting an error around the 19:20 mark. The error is "Custom element doesn't exist: grid-layout". The only difference between what I did when following along was to install Big Slider Card since slider-card wasn't an option, I assume BSC is the new version?? Any ideas as to what I should do to resolve this? I've also got 2 "UI Lovelace Minimalist" links in my HA menu. The first one takes me to a blank page, nothing shown at all. The second one is what's producing the error along with a substantial amount of code.

Fantastic guide and I have started work on porting my mushroom setup to minimalist with your help! Question regarding your room card. I do not have a sensor to use in a label so have removed that and see that it is showing the light state which is great. My issue is that on rooms that do not have brightness capability, when its on, it shows as 0% brightness. The mushroom card shows "on" in comparison. Can you assist in how to change your card to handle this? Whats great on the mushroom card is I control a light group, one of those lights has brightness control - when I have that light on, it shows the brighness state, but if i turn that particular light off, the label changes to "On" if that makes sense...

[@wstrater]

Fantastic video. I struggled with colors in Minimalist. I want to use color minimally as possible. If something on my dashboard is colored then I need to pay attention. Minimalist UI seems to make that hard. I wanted to color just the icon but the whole card is colored. I even tried making my own color templates but couldn't get them to be used. Rather not have to create a bunch of custom cards just to get better control over color. Maybe you could do a video on making a custom card or custom color template. My current solution is Mushroom cards with a heavy use of Template. I even have a bunch of Template Chips that color an icon that give me a quick glance. I can click on them to see a dedicated view for more details.

nvm - I figured it out. You have to "Download" before clicking the button to add the integration.

Tried to follow, but failed to install slider-card. My Cards Bundle doesn't exist. I had to install the git repo manually first
