v2.4.0

[2.4.0] - 2026-06-04

Added

• Card suggestion support for HA 2026.6+: the card now appears in the "Community" section of the card picker when the user selects a binary_sensor, switch, light, input_boolean, or automation entity.

v2.3.1

Fixed

• Replace deprecated ha-textfield with ha-selector in visual editor for compatibility with HA 2026.5.1+
• Add getGridOptions() and height: 100% for correct sizing in HA sections view

Changed

• Standardize console.info banner colors

v2.3 - Add Visual Editor

Full GUI configuration without YAML

• Card Settings panel: title, columns, icon size, font size, colors, show last changed toggle
• Entities panel: add/remove entities with expansion panels for each
• Per-entity customization: entity picker, custom name, icon on/off, color on/off overrides

v2.2 - Performance Optimization

What's Changed

Performance Improvements 🚀

• Optimized render updates: Card now only re-renders when configured entities actually change state, not on every Home Assistant state update
• Change detection: Added _hasEntitiesChanged() method to intelligently compare entity states between updates
• Dramatic performance improvement: Eliminates unnecessary re-renders in systems with many entities updating frequently

Fixed

• Performance issue where card re-rendered on every HA state update (#1)

Credits

• Thanks to @andyp05 for reporting this issue and providing the initial optimized implementation approach

Full Changelog: v2.1...v2.2

v2.1.0 - Accessibility & Per-Item Overrides

What's New in v2.1.0

Added

• Per-item show_last_changed override: Individual items can now override the global show_last_changed setting
• Full accessibility support:
  • Keyboard navigation with Tab, Enter, and Space keys
  • ARIA labels and roles for screen readers
  • Focus indicators with visible outline
• Long-press support: Hold any item for 500ms to open the more-info dialog
• Unavailable state handling: Entities that are unavailable or unknown now display a grayed-out alert icon instead of being hidden
• Error notifications: Failed service calls now show toast notifications with error details

Changed

• Event handling: Switched to event delegation pattern for better performance (single event listeners instead of per-item)
• DOM architecture: Styles and container are now created once and persisted, with only content updated on state changes
• Smart state detection: Domain-aware logic for determining "on" state (covers check position, climate ignores "off", etc.)

Fixed

• Icon alignment: Icons now properly align when mixing items with and without timestamps using visibility-based spacing
• Render thrashing: Eliminated constant DOM recreation that caused flickering
• State object access: Fixed bug where entity_id was incorrectly accessed from state object

Performance

• Reduced re-renders through better component lifecycle management
• Event delegation eliminates need to re-attach listeners on every render
• Persistent style elements prevent CSS re-parsing

See CHANGELOG.md for complete version history.
