I Built a Home Assistant Dashboard From Scratch - Here’s How It Turned Out

In this video, I share my journey of building a Home Assistant floor plan dashboard from scratch, from design to a fully working smart home interface. I started by creating the floor plan layout in Sweet Home 3D, then polished and refined key elements in Photoshop to make everything cleaner and easier to read inside Home Assistant. To speed things up, I also used ChatGPT to help generate and structure the YAML code for the dashboard. This video isn’t a full tutorial — it’s a real-world look at my Home Assistant dashboard journey, showing how different tools come together to create a functional and visual floor plan dashboard with room-level status and presence tracking.
