Dashboard 2.0 and UI svg?

[Stwissel]

Can I use the svg UI in the new dashboard 2.0?

if no: what help would you need?

Hi @Stwissel,

No unfortunately you cannot use it in D2.

• The new VueJs framework works completely different compared to the old AngularJs one.

• Moreover I would like to design it also completely different to avoid problems users ran into with the old node (more specifically the lack of server side state.

• I implemented some feature requests in the past which I have regret afterwards. So would remove them now.

• This node does way too much. It has become a little monster over the years, and need to be split in multiple nodes.

• The integration with DrawSvg has been frustrating users, due to the new licensing model that has been introduced some time ago (especially concering the layers feature which has become a paid feature).

So this will be a time consuming process, and I have very few free time lately.
Moreover I need to convert first the multistate-switch and web-push nodes, because I use those ones in my own home automation.

Summarized: an awefull lot of work, not much free time.
Please don't ask me when I will have time, because I don't know...

Thx for the update. I might start a v2 svg for a project, but for sure not as powerful as yours.
Happy to listen to advice
