  • docs: write up everything that arrived after v1.1.0 Six pages, with the release on each new heading the way the v1.1.0 ones were. Variables gains the stand-ins - `default:` and `or:`, what counts as a gap, and how they differ from `?`, which removes the key rather than filling it - the `json` step, and the three resolvers that complete the set: `floor`, and the `area_id` and `device_id` that are for building an entity id rather than showing a name. Repeating a Template gains the half of it that was missing: narrowing by device class, integration and `exclude`; ordering, `limit` and the `total` that outlives it; `range`; the `empty` card; reaching into a nested item; and a card per area that knows what is in it, which is the shape people actually build and now has a screenshot of it working. Styling gains `gap` and the `grid_options` a template can declare once, both with a note on why they are custom properties rather than rules. Visual Editors gains what the editors learned to do - say what a repeat matches before you save it, warn that something uses this template, reorder the declared variables, duplicate, move a dashboard off the original card's names, and start from the built-in library - with screenshots of each. Troubleshooting gains the template that uses itself, which used to take the tab with it, along with did-you-mean, `debug`, `strict` and the note about a repeat that matched half the house. The reference tables carry all of it, including a table of what every copy of a repeat is given and where it comes from. Every internal link and anchor across all 22 pages checks out.

  • docs: show the five pages that had no picture on them

  • docs: document required, which this page was already being linked to for `required: true` shipped in v1.1.0 but never reached this page, while Repeating a Template sends people here for it - so the one cross-reference that mattered landed on a page with no mention of it. It gets a row in the declaration table and a section of its own, because it does two separate things: it marks the field required in the card editor and reports an unset one as an error, and it makes a repeat skip an item that leaves it empty. Both are covered, with the contradiction against `default` and a pointer to the `?` marker for the opposite case. The warnings table gains the two messages that came with it, and no longer says "the two mistakes" above a list of six.

  • docs: point at the releases page for what changed, and explain the version markers With no changelog in the repository any more, a release's notes are the only record of what a version brought - so the index says where they are. And the (v1.1.0+) marks now scattered through the pages want a line saying what they mean, on the page everyone lands on first.

  • docs: write up the v1.1.0 features, with the release on each new heading New headings now carry the release they arrived in, the way TaskMate's wiki does, so you can tell from the page whether the version you are running has the thing it describes. Only headings for things that are actually new are tagged - the pages that predate the convention are left alone. Covers what has landed since v1.0.0: asking Home Assistant what an entity is called, optional placeholders, escaping brackets, repeating over the registry, numbering copies, leaving out a copy with nothing to show, fit: contents, shared dashboard defaults, and the Result panel in the card editor.

  • Scalar-only transforms, single-mapping for_each, and new-tab usage links

  • Variables can be a mapping, and template cards can be nested Two fixes landed in the card that these pages had backwards. Variables written as a mapping used to lose every key after the first, so the wiki told people to use a list and Troubleshooting listed the mapping form as a cause of stray placeholders. Both shapes now work everywhere, so Variables shows both, Troubleshooting drops that cause, and the reference says so. Template cards were only found at the top level of a view, so Defining Templates saying 'any view' was not quite true for one tidied away inside a stack. It is now, and the page says as much. The card editor's message for a variables block that is neither shape changed with it.

  • Document describing variables, repeating a template, transforms and where used Five things landed in the card that the wiki did not cover: - a template can describe its variables, so cards using it get real controls - a card can render its template once per item with for_each - a placeholder can ask for its value in a different shape with |slug and friends - the template editor can turn a card you already have into a template - the template editor lists everywhere a template is used Two new pages, Describing Variables and Repeating a Template, since both are whole topics rather than paragraphs. Transforms went into Variables next to the other placeholder forms, and the two editor actions into Visual Editors beside the tabs they belong to. Configuration Reference, Troubleshooting, Home and the sidebar follow.

  • Document the Share tab, and correct the requirements Adds a Sharing a Template page covering export and import, which had no coverage at all, with a screenshot from the dev HA. Linked from the sidebar, the Home index, Visual Editors and the between-dashboards page. Installation said any version from 2024.2 was fine and showed a 2026.2.0 console banner; hacs.json declares 2024.7.0 and the card reports 1.0.0.

  • Point the manual install links at main raw.githubusercontent does not follow GitHub's branch-rename redirect, so the wget would have 404'd.

  • Document the card in full: 18 pages with worked examples and screenshots Covers installation, a five-minute quick start, the two ways to define templates, all four content types (card, badge, row, element), variables and their substitution rules, cross-dashboard template sharing, visibility conditions, styling, the visual editors, a configuration reference, ten recipes, a migration guide and troubleshooting. Screenshots are captured from a real Home Assistant instance.
