Custom card for Home Assistant with color and dimming support. Config and Image Editing Tutorial

Youtube: demo video

This is a simple custom card for Home Assistant that adds easy support for lights, showing color and dimming in a picture elements card.

This card supports both regular white dimmable bulbs, and color bulbs.

Requirements: The referenced light entity must support the 'brightness' attribute for dimming to work, and it must support the 'hs_color' and 'rgb_color' attributes for color to work.

The card currently only works on browsers that support the css filter element. Would be very easy for you to add webkit support if you wanted or needed that.
