agree! If I see something remotely pretty (tbh I haven't seen a pretty dashboard yet) then i'm going to pull in a CSS developer
Here's a work-in-progress build of the Dashboard. A lot of it was easier than I'd expected --- if I'd thought through my layout more intentionally, I could have done a lot of the work programmatically, instead of coding each scenario in CSS.
Functionally, everything is in this build --- the only things I didn't do are add the bottom bar (which would just be a floated div set to the bottom of the screen with 3 links in it), and add links to the menu items. There's also a bug on my end in the CSS layout where I didn't override something with the transition's background.
If you guys want me to keep working on this little dashboard, let me know
This got me thinking back to something I started working on back in early 2015...
I asked myself How on earth can I make THAT?, so I've started working on that dashboard, now. Most of the functions can be implemented, and I'm working out the camera part (since we use Wyze...),
Okay...now, how do I get mine to look like that? And don't say "learn CSS".
I’ll share the CSS I’m also tempted to make a video detailing it a bit.
Basically — know which tiles contain which elements, and copy in the CSS that I’ve already got written
Wow. That looked awesome. Looking forward to seeing more.
