  • Please attempt the floor plan one. It is stunning, and by you attempting it, you could hopefully guide us around the parts that you found challenging. Would make for an epic little series. I would love to see the whole process that you go through
  • @MirkoSeipel
    A video on how to create a dashboard similar to Luke Vink's would be great. Certainly not easy but you will learn a lot 😁
  • Great! You're wearing Bearded Thinker's Hoodie. Cool to see that!
  • @markprice1734
    I like the idea of a picture (doesn't have to be 3D) to quickly see a status of each room, without having to go through lots of menus
  • I really like the floor plan by Luke Vinck! I would love to see your version of that. I tried to do his earlier, but it was way out of my league. If you do it, I would love to see you do a sort of walk through & explain how to do it
  • @DomoticsDuino
    Very nice dashboards. I made something similar with a wall mounted tablet for my OpenHAB 3 home automation system, with automatic recharge. It is definitively the best mode to operate. Thanks for sharing
  • @wstrater
    Don't recall a video on your dashboard. I remember a video about mounting it on the wall. What looked interesting about your current dashboard is that the content of main panel changed to display different rooms and wondered how you achieved that? How did you size your other panels or did they just naturally end up that way?
  • @Juicefpv
    I started on a wall mounted tablet dashboard, but ended up not going ahead. I realised that nobody would use it. So I am just doing a phone dashboard for the family. Nice video, gave me some inspiration ❤
  • @Iruini626
    Hey man! Love your tablet design! Can you possibly share your layout code? It looks so sweet!
  • @Bigglare
    Awesome dashboards. The floorplan reminds me of my 2001 HomeSeer Dashboard.
  • @AndrewDanne
    Really enjoyed "Dashboard 5 - Luke Vink" as it really looks clean, functional, professional. Im looking for a configuration that you could install for others that looks good and feels easy to use.
  • @maxvaessen
    Nice episode! I was looking for some inspiration. Thanks!
  • I used Luke Vink's floorplan as inspiration for my own. It's pretty incredible, and can be a bit mind-blowing for the person you're showing it off to. It looks "real" enough that my girlfriend jokes that when we're home, you can see us walking around in the image. Maybe once you release the presence detector I'll get that working ;) it's all png overlays, done with css blend mode "lighten." For the color lights, it's important to render your images with RED light so that the hue shift code better represents the actual color. In fact, I blend 3 different images to get accurate color from my rgbw lights. The first image is red light for the color shift, the second image is cool white to represent the rbg white light, and the third image is a warm white to display the warm white channel. In the end it does a nice job of colouring the scene, even if it takes quite a few rendered images to accomplish. I've also added some gifs that show music notes when audio is playing, a spinning fan when the overhead fan is on, and a "breathing" glowing light in the closet where (and when) my mail arrives. I won't post my house layout in public forums... but If you have any questions I can post bits of my config. Cheers!

    Wow. Both of my favourites are here. Smart Home junkie. Everything Smart Home.
  • @MrKlawUK
    do you have a guide in a video for UI based setup of a tablet dashboard? Curious how you handle the multiple columns, and if its possible to have one layout that changes smartly between mobile and tablet with reformatting?
  • @Rafael4
    Luke Vink’s was my favorite one. Really good video, keep up the good work!
  • @pcampanotti
    Thanks again for another informative video. Have you done a video on how to have a different dashboard for each device type? Thanks again.
  • @adynis
    I'd like to see you focusing on a minimalist dashbord for tablet taking into account the (new?) experience with all the other dashboards presented.
  • Hi Lewis, I'm super interested in seeing you achieved the 2:1 split layout on you own tablet dashboard. Have looked a lot around and can't find a solution to this.
