Features

Dark Theme Support

The dark theme reduces the luminance emitted by device screens, while still meeting minimum color contrast ratios. It helps improve visual ergonomics by reducing eye strain and facilitating screen use in dark environments – all while conserving battery power.

You can enable/disable the dark theme from the Hubitat app:

Dashboard Grid Layout

The app provides a flexible and user-friendly dashboard grid layout that empowers you to customize your dashboard experience. With this feature, you can effortlessly rearrange charts, widgets, and other visual elements to suit your preferences.

When you’ve achieved the ideal arrangement, press Ctrl + S to save the current grid layout.

Zoom and Pan

You can use the zoom and pan functionality for charts that display multiple data points over time.

Zooming In and Out

• To zoom in, use the mouse wheel (scroll up) or perform a pinch gesture on mobile devices. This action magnifies the chart, allowing you to focus on specific data points or intervals.
• Conversely, to zoom out, scroll the mouse wheel down or reverse the pinch gesture. Zooming out provides a broader view of the chart, encompassing a larger time range or dataset.

Panning (Horizontal Movement)

Panning allows you to explore different time periods within the same chart. Here’s how it works:

• Left Panning: Drag the chart to the left (by clicking and holding while moving the cursor left). This exposes later data points or shifts the view to the future.

• Right Panning: Drag the chart to the right (similarly, click and hold while moving the cursor right). This reveals earlier data points or shifts the view to the past.

These interactive features enhance your ability to analyze data dynamically. Feel free to experiment with zooming and panning to uncover insights hidden within your charts!

Progressive Web App Support

Hub-a-Dashery can be easily installed as a Progressive Web App (PWA). PWAs offer a seamless experience by allowing users to install web apps directly on their devices. Let’s walk through the installation steps:

2. Navigate to the Hub-a-Dashery HTML app, starting from the Hubitat Hub interface.
3. Once on the Hub-a-Dashery HTML app, tap the Install button. This action prompts the browser to recognize Hub-a-Dashery as a PWA.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation process.
5. Hub-a-Dashery will now appear as an app icon on your device, alongside other platform-specific apps.

For iOS users:

2. Navigate to the Hub-a-Dashery HTML app, starting from the Hubitat Hub interface.
3. Once on the Hub-a-Dashery HTML app, tap the Share button (usually represented by a square with an arrow pointing upward).
4. Select Add to Home Screen from the options.
5. Customize the app name (if desired) and tap Add.
6. Hub-a-Dashery will now be accessible from your home screen like any other app.

Once installed, you can launch Hub-a-Dashery directly from your device and it will behave like a native app, providing a seamless experience.
