Ive been using HA now for many years, and it continues to be amazing to me, and the automations Im using really help me and my household. Love it.

But my dashboard - sucks. Its a cobbled together view of stuff, some from day one, and whenever I added something I wanted, but its just that...added. Its far from pretty.

I am getting to the point where I am thinking of getting a tablet of some kind and mounting it for the family, but in its current form, Im embarassed.

Ive been playing with the MCP server with Claude, and have been working on automations and such, works great for that. But a designer of a dashboard, it is not. Maybe its the guy prompting it (me) but frankly, Im gaining no ground.

Can anyone point me in the direction of what has worked for them? Im not looking for fully automated system to do all the work, but I obviously need help where I am at right now to get where I am to something better.

Any help/direction/tips would be appreciated.
