Did you struggle with the layout of your Dashboards as well? What are your tips? Let me know! 👇

This is one of the MOST useful videos I've seen solving one of the most annoying issues with Home Assistant. I love your efficient presentation style that focuses on the content.

It's like you read my mind - I've been looking for a good tutorial on HA layouts just the other day and then this video appears - brilliant work and love your channel!

[odhiambo]

You just earned my subscription. I love these unassuming "for Dummies" guides. I can't wait for the video on how you created your dashboard.

This is fantastic. I wish these options were available inside Home Assistant officially. I know Home Assistant has vertical and horizontal stack cards, but they are a little limited compared to this layout-card functionality. Vertical looks great for portrait style layouts, but I do like the total control of the Grid, though it would take more time. :) Thanks for sharing. I really appreciate your videos.

Erg blij met dit tutorial en andere van jouw hand. Als beginnen HA bouwer zijn ze erg behulpzaam!

[WillemGoosen]

I like using the horizontal-stack inside the vertical-stack, thereby creating 4 columns per dashboard.

@10:10 instead of going into the raw configuration, you can enter those options in the code box in the view settings, where you choose the view type.

Thank you for the explanation! This was driving me nuts, so I did what anyone would do and turned to Youtube lol.

The information in this video has helped my dashboard so much

[pangit]

Thanks, this is exactly what I needed. I have recently set up a wall tablet and the layout keeps changing, so this will fix that perfectly!

[davidlucas]

Very useful, Thankyou. Looking forward to the video on how you created your dashboard

Happy New Year, Ed. I'm about to start a new HA setup in a new house in a few weeks, so this series and all your videos will be invaluable. Thanks.

Thanks for clear step by step instructions

[Cedars]

Thanks for the tutorial, Ed - super helpful and I love your style and pace (especially the "turns to the laptop that isn't even switched on" move!!! 😂)

[rogerlippuner]

if you want to center the chips cards in the menu section: add
view_layout:
grid-area: header
place-self: center

[MrNetworkG]

Your videos are so helpful. Thank you!

[kevinhenryviii]

Happy new year Ed. Just the inspiration I need to sort out my dashboard. Thank you.

honestly great video!!! its a shame it didnt stay relavent very long. i started to follow the steps you were laying out and you got to the layout and im like wait... thats just the curent UI he is making... and its only 2 years old lol. eather way you do a great job of explaning stuff theroly and ad a good pase.... alot of pepole who make tutorials talk so fast that in order to slow down they go on long tangents about other stuff or detail thats not needed... but you go at a nice even pase. i think its because you seem to do alot of the steps in real time and explain them before you do them wich i love!!! you defently have a new follorer for sure!

[abwino]

Thanks very much for this video, I'm beginning to understand grid layouts!
