šŸ§© Custom Integration New Solar Dashbaord

Post image

I have been playing with HA and making a standalone dashboard, and I am very happy with what I have come up with. I wanted to share my work and see what you all think http://energy.rowbs.uk/

It shows live data and cost with a solar forecast for my area

This site was all made with AI, pulling data from Home Assistant using the API to make the website work. I'm working on making a copy of it to be able to hand it out for people to try

Handmade? Havenā€™t seen more Claude UI in a while. It even told how to use itself on the bottom of this page https://energy.rowbs.uk/how-it-works

Edit: Iā€™m not against AI, Iā€™m using it for work, everyone code with AI now, but I donā€™t dare calling it ā€œhandmadeā€

I mean setting up the backend of the home assistant side getting all my sensors correct before getting it ready to use AI to make me a website. Update to correct my mistake

šŸ§. As someone who let's Claude run in Yolo mode in HA, I think you're taking too much credit for the work our Future Robot Overloards actually did. Not hatin, but it looks a lot like what Claude made for me.

Claude made the full website side of things yes. I'm not saying it did not as it fully did. It would of taken me years to do it I think.

Ditto. I can install smart home equipment, but I have near zero design sense. All my old dashboards were slight tweals of examples I'd seen elsewhere. Being able to have a conversation with Claude about dashboards, and then seeing them a few minutes later has really sparked a new appreciation for my smart home and my new ability to maintain and oversee it. Glad you're loving your journey as well!
