Drag 'n drop in your dashboards using a brand-new sections view and start up twice as fast! Run scripts with user input from your dashboards, a new energy graph for individual devices, new sentence...
Drag n drop is great but honestly what I want is a native UI on each platform.
I realize that they aren’t reinventing the wheel with the UI updates this year so it’s not really comparable/fair to say but I just want something faster and more responsive (especially on mobile). It seems crazy to me that in 2024 the fastest hardware available still takes a couple seconds to show my dashboard on a cold boot of the app.
Yea, we don’t really need first party native UIs (the community can do that themselves), just more control and configurability over what we currently have.
I’d like to see some better screen formatting options without having to use custom code or unofficial add-ons.
For example, I’d like to make a grid layout that auto stretches and flows for different display sizes like a modern website can, or lock to a screen width/height etc for a fixed wall mounted controller so I don’t get random scrollbars on some screens.
And more control over things like tap and hold actions. it’s almost impossible for me to use tap and hold on my main wall mounted display for example, if I move by a single pixel it doesn’t react, I’d like to set the deadzone and delay time for that for example.
I work in mobile and respectfully disagree with it having no impact on time to show. You might not notice much difference if you are inside your house using gigabit WiFi, but go load your dashboard on a slow 3G/4G network lol
Sure, there is a higher development cost but you get what you pay for in this case. The project already supports native apps for Android, iOS and Mac.
That makes no sense. Are you are implying that somehow going native gets you faster network transmission speeds?
Besides, the dashboards in home assistant are heavily customizable with css, which means that just using native components is not practically feasible.

A native ui wouldn’t have much or any impact on time to show your dashboard. But it would add an astronomical overhead to the development costs
