Very good! Just started with a python developer background with home assistant and I'm asking myself if I should learn node red instead of ha automation or stay in ha until I experience it's limits. How do you think about it? In the end I'd like to log a lot of stuff into influxdb, read it and develop complex actions. Can I skip node red and do all of this with yaml and jinja?

I replayed the first two episodes and started taking notes so I can refresh my memory the next time I'm writing a template. Can't stress enough how useful these courses have been! 💚

Excellent video Ed. I wish such a video existed 2 years ago, when I had to figure out all this. Even with basic knowledge of if-then-else and for-next statements, you still need to know how it works in ninja2 templating.Thanks.

The pace of this video was much better. I did not have to stop it and rewind to make sure I got it. The 1st two videos I had to do that a lot.

Thank you, amazingly good! Also; your set up is fantastic with the division into sections and all the information below with references etc. You lead me on the right track right from the start and I can test things in peace afterwards. My stress factor has also leveled off to a comfortable level when I listen. Thanks again for your commitment!!

loving this bootcamp style course, need to be quick on the spacebar and fast on the pen for notes but I love that you dont use 'filler' or anything irrelavant enabling me to stay focused.. also starting to wish I'd done python instead of javascript... getting slightly confused over 'filters, tests and "methods"?' as related to js but im sure ill wrap my head around it.. Thankyou for this!

Thanks great video Ed, the pace seemed much better on this lesson. Now if its not a really stupid question, how do you use the Jinja templating code in a HA dashboard? I have used Jinja a bit in custom templates (e.g. calculate house load from solar panel output, import & export kWh, etc) and automations (checking whether today matches a helper entity), and am familiar with the dev template editor as you are using, but how do I put this template code onto a dashboard? At the moment I have had to use a HACS custom HTML card, formatting the contents as a table, but its awful to code & debug like this and I figure there ought to be a native way of doing this. You can’t use template code in any of the entity cards and I don’t really want to create more helper entities just as an intermediary to displaying on a dashboard

🤣🤣 I love that you addressed the comment about speaking too fast. Your videos are awesome! I understand the comment, but I just use CC and rewind from time to time. But I did try the speed playback you suggested at .75, but then it sounds like you are drugged 🤣🤣. Also I love the transparency of your bloopers trying to pronounce words in English. I applaud you for doing these tutorials in English as a second language. Keep up the awesome work and look for some Kofi.
