Your dashboards look great IMO. There's definitely work to be done on the dashboard app, and I found myself pretty frustrated while setting mine up, but once that effort was done I have found them to be effective. Not that pretty but they get the job done. RGBW control is the only thing I'm missing as well.
HP has RGB control? I have my rpi just for the vpn(not working at the moment) because it was for google assistant but with the chromecast integration I don't need it anymore. I can try HP.
Edit: I should post this in the HP thread, or at least go there and read more. Sorry.
Would House Panel run on a synology NAS?
Yes HP has full color control and yes it can run on anything that can host a website.
Fyi.

Even though is progress is still restrictive.
You can't choose and use your own icon custom set, you can't float text, you can't have a background image per tile,
Just to name a few. Not everyone is a fan of minimalist design.
So you want minimalist light switches and a noisy dashboard?

I like good design.
The current application of minimalist on tiles, on the foremention tools, is not, in my humble opinion, a good application of minimalist design. A core tenant in minimalist design is simplicity of use with user experience at heart.
Just my 2 cents though

Just a quick update...
Hub/Mesh has been stable for a few days now.
Do I know what the hell was going on on the first times? No damn clue.
Same devices on same location with same batteries.
Same zigbee radio.
Same custom code

Glad to hear everything has stabilized for you. These mesh networks can definitely be flakey at times. I recently had a Z-Wave Plus light switch wreak havoc on my Z-Wave mesh, causing very long response times. I noticed one switch would not respond at all, even to physical presses of the switch.
I pulled the air-gap on the switch and everything returned to normal. After returning the air-gap back to normal, everything was still fine.
Nice. 
Do you have any sort of troubleshooting site for HousePanel for just Hubitat? Your directions are great. I just wish you could have directions for Hubitat only. So confusing with all of the Smartthings instructions in there too.
I've downloaded HousePanel to my rPi and used your installer. Getting all the way to the Auth page. Selected all of my Hubitat devices. Never can get past the Auth page. So tired of just trying to figure out what the problem is. Unfortunately I'm no coder. Would appreciate a little help for a donation.
That's where I've been reading. What reasons are there that this would not work? I removed the ; in the php.ini file in the apache2 directory for curl. Nothing I do fixes it.
I’m at work now but I will help you later tonight. Most common reasons for issues are cURL installs and file server permissions. Also, we should take this discussion to the main HousePanel thread where others can help you too. Go here:
Nevermind. I started from scratch installing manually and got things working. Will play with it now. Sweet!!!

Ken,
A few questions. Do you have links for the wiki and forum? I haven't a clue. I'm pretty overwhelmed trying to figure out how things work. I really just have 2 big things that I'd like to have added to a main page. I feel that once I understand how things work on these then I'd have a good enough grasp to go on my own.
I'm wanting to add a motion tile for weather radar, and a live view of a single camera on my local network.
For the weather, I added a weather tile. How or where do you change the location from Ann Arbor? I couldn't find anything in the GUI editor showing any kind of URL.
For the camera, I played with the editing options, and I managed to make a tile that if I click on it would open another window with just my camera in it.
The main thread for HousePanel questions and support is here.
Documentation is at http://www.housepanel.net
You have to edit the forecast.html or accuweather.html files.
