Dashboards

Why this pattern works

Use repeated device tiles with visible current states to make a control dashboard readable before interaction.

Design notes

Surface: Home Assistant — Smart home dashboard
Navigation: A compact top bar holds global actions while groups organize the dashboard below.
Layout: Uneven card groups combine small device controls with wider information and chart cards.
Density: Many controls fit in a grid while icons, names, and current states remain distinct.
Color: Pale neutral surfaces with yellow active lights and blue device accents.
Type: Small sans-serif labels keep tools and content visually separate.
Pattern: Use repeated device tiles with visible current states to make a control dashboard readable before interaction.
States: This capture records the visible state only. Loading, error, and later workflow states were not verified.
Don't: Adapt the interface pattern with original content, branding, and data; do not infer behavior from a still image.

## Acceptance criteria
- Existing project conventions, design tokens, working functionality, and unrelated changes are preserved.
- Two or three reference principles clearly support the user's task; conflicts are resolved in favor of usability and the existing product.
- Reusable components and semantic HTML express the interface. Available licensed assets are used; important UI text is never rendered as a bitmap.
- Every visible control has a defined behavior. Loading, empty, error, success, disabled, and long-content states are specified where relevant. Demo data is clearly labeled.
- Navigation and content adapt at 375px, 768px, and 1440px without horizontal page overflow. Keyboard use, visible focus, labeled inputs, at least 44px touch targets, readable contrast, and reduced motion are supported.
- Verification distinguishes rendered behavior from proposals and identifies anything still requiring a backend or external service.

## Quality bar
Clear hierarchy, consistent spacing, restrained surfaces, and purposeful motion. Avoid decorative gradients, excessive cards, placeholder buttons, and invented metrics unless the project calls for them. Do not claim a feature is connected or tested without evidence.
