The Home Assistant demo (which is in progress) will show off multiple Lovelace configurations and the user will be able to browse through them.

This page describes how to contribute a Lovelace config for the Home Assistant demo on the website. Unless you have been redirected here by a core developer, there is no guarantee that we will add it to our website.

We might end up tweaking contributed configs to better fit the demo. At any point in time, you can ask to have your contributed config removed from the demo.

To contribute a demo, you will need to collect the following information and sent it to @balloob on Discord:

  • The name of your config
  • Your name (or nickname)
  • URL to link to when people click your name
  • Your lovelace config. If you use YAML mode, include the YAML. If you use storage mode, go to the raw config editor and copy paste the YAML.
  • Your Home Assistant states. Video on how to dump your states. To protect your privacy, remove personal information or ask @balloob to do this.
  • Any images or assets that are used by your config. If you don't want to share the actual image, please explain how the image looks, so we can find an alternative.
  • Any themes used by your config
  • Limit the usage of custom cards. Although custom cards are awesome, it might end up confusing users that are thinking about using Home Assistant.
