Note

The sidebar is responsive and scales between --sidebar-min-width and --sidebar-max-width (default: between 300px and 500px). If screen is smaller than the set up minimum screen width (default 1024px) the sidebar will be hidden (for example on the most mobile phones)

Setup

HA-Dashboard isn't a card. It has to be used as a type for one complete page / view. If you look at the example, the key views has to be on the main level of your lovelace-yaml. Unfortunatelly it can't be setup with the help of the ui (the cards inside the dashboard can be setup with the help of the ui). Instead you have to setup it over the yaml configuration.
