This release brings a highly requested update to how you center your Windy Map, letting you dynamically track moving devices right on your dashboard!

New Features & Enhancements

  • Device Tracker Support [#4]: You can now use device_tracker entities (such as your smartphone via the Home Assistant companion app) to dynamically center your map, in addition to standard zone entities.
  • Configuration Update: To better reflect this expanded support, the zone_entity configuration parameter has been renamed to the more accurate location.
  • Seamless Migration: No breaking changes! Your existing configurations using zone_entity will continue working perfectly under the hood, and will automatically seamlessly migrate to location the next time you open the visual editor.
  • Under the Hood: Bumped assorted development dependencies for continued stability and performance.
