In Search of the Perfect Smart Home Dial Remote - Part 2: Magnetic Decoder and Programmable Haptics · Reddit · 2026-10-16

I finally built a kitchen tablet dashboard that actually helps us run the house (and a weather frog with 161 scenes) · Reddit · 2026-10-14
After a lot of half-finished dashboards, I finally have one on the kitchen tablet that we actually use every day. It isn't a showcase of every entity I own. It's built around how our family's day goes: getting our daughter to kindergarten, what to cook tonight, when the washing…
