Home Assistant shows an ESPHome device action with bare field names and
types only: no description, no dropdowns. The new Alerts button opens a
reference page instead: per screen the exact action names
(esphome.<node>_show_alert and _dismiss_alert) with copy buttons and
whether the firmware is new enough, a paste-ready YAML example per
screen, every field with explanation, example and the byte limits per
board, all icons with glyph and name (searchable, tap copies), the
colour swatches, the behaviour (timeout, button, flash, standby,
replace), and the esphome.screen_alert event with an automation that
waits for the button.
core.alert_reference() carries the data and tests/test_alerts_reference.py
keeps it equal to what both board profiles, tile_palette.h,
alert_overlay.h and tile_icons.py compile. Screens carry alert_action
and dismiss_action in the inventory. App only; firmware stays 0.2.31.

Every screen gets the user action esphome.<device>_show_alert with title,
subtitle, icon, color, button_text, timeout and flash. The card sits on
LVGL's top layer above every page, card and the dim overlay, wakes the
screen and keeps the backlight at its normal brightness until the button
(or the timeout; 0 waits for the button, the button always closes at
once). flash: true blinks the backlight four times on arrival. Icons are
the tile picker names (also mdi:name or the hex codepoint of a compiled
glyph, else alert-outline), colours the tile pastels. A new alert replaces
the current one; every ending fires esphome.screen_alert with action,
title and screen. dismiss_alert removes the card remotely.
The field is button_text rather than button: ESPHome reserves the names
of loaded components as ids and the CYD profile loads button:. The C++
namespace is screen_alert because the widget id alert_overlay becomes a
global lv_obj_t*.
tools/generate_icons.py now also writes tile_icon_names.h (name to
codepoint) from the one icon list. Firmware 0.2.31 for both boards.

"Nieuw scherm" used to span two dialogs plus a copy/download of the
installation YAML. It is now one dialog: board, name (node name derived,
editable), wifi only when secrets.yaml lacks it, the detected USB port,
and Installeren. The add-on writes the profile with unique API/OTA keys,
merges just the missing wifi lines into secrets.yaml (comments and other
secrets untouched, result re-parsed before writing), then builds and
flashes with the live ESPHome log and stage in the same dialog; a failed
build offers a retry without a second profile. The YAML download
endpoint is gone: the profile already lives in the ESPHome folder.
Pairing happens in Home Assistant itself, so the done view and a sidebar
card per not-yet-paired profile say so, with a button to Apparaten &
diensten, the API key to copy and the reminder to allow HA actions.
One profile per screen; the dialog says that too.
Tests: wifi merge cases, install pre-checks, pending list, profile
metadata; the date-anchored hourly forecast test now follows the clock.
Firmware 0.2.22 stays current.

App 0.2.23 / firmware 0.2.19.
- Wide cards of climate, switch, light, fan, vacuum, cover, media_player,
number, select, timer, scene, script and button show Home Assistant style
controls on the right (keys, -/+ pill with debounced send, slider with
handle, toggle, run key); per-tile choice `options.controls` in the editor
with mockup preview; the add-on sends only the set a card really shows.
- Weather card: now + next hours and coming days with rain, from daily and
hourly forecasts; scenes/scripts/buttons show when they last ran.
- Climate card: power key, tap-to-toggle option, fan and swing rows in a
redesigned mode picker (grey backdrop, white chips, accent selection).
- Busy state as a spinner on a translucent sheet; render guards so only
changed styles reach LVGL; dark theme removed from the runtime code.
- supported_features above 1e6 reaches the screen; middle dot in text fonts;
18 control glyphs in the icon fonts; diagnostics services
preview_climate_picker and preview_busy; demo layout --controls.

Screens now report their ESPHome name and IP address, so the add-on can
match each screen to its YAML profile and OTA address itself. The screen
list shows an update badge with a Bijwerken button, an update-all action
and a nightly checkbox; updates run one screen at a time, wait for the
new version to report back and stop the round on the first failure.
App 0.2.16, firmware 0.2.17.

Firmware 0.2.16: the analog clock uses index strokes with 12/3/6/9
numerals on large cards and shows a calendar block (weekday, big day,
short month) beside the dial on single tiles; wide cards keep the digital
time and date. New palette key 'none' hides only the card fill and
border: geometry, padding and the pressed flash stay identical. Skeleton
frames and the render self-test honour the transparency.
App 0.2.15: 'Geen' in the background palette with a dashed mockup tile,
min_firmware 0.2.16 for such layouts, demo layout with the bare calendar
clock (--wide for the double-width clock). README and AGENTS note that
every push is a release and bumps the add-on version.

Firmware 0.2.15: trend graphs use a Catmull-Rom curve with a soft fill
drawn by the card's draw event; sun.sun gets a wide sun-path card with
horizon, arc and the sun at its current position; page switches show
the new page's card frames immediately and fill them from a one-shot
timer; the navigation is one full-width bar without a divider; the CYD
adopts the Guition light palette in styles and overlays.
App 0.2.13: pointer-based drag & drop (mouse and touch) to reorder tiles
in the mockup and to drop entities from the list, sticky save bar, a new
header with explained actions and a three-step guide, clearer firmware
dialog. New sun, weather and clock tiles start wide in their best view.

Any tile can now be double width: pack() in runtime_model.h places wide
tiles in the left column and the manager preview follows the same rules.
New cards: built-in clock (digital or analog, screen.clock), five-day
weather forecast on a wide weather card fed by weather.get_forecasts,
history sparkline for sensors, sunrise/sunset (sun.sun), live kitchen
timer (timer.*, tap starts or pauses) and presence (person.*). The
manager pre-computes time-zone and forecast extras in a new 'x' object
and refuses layouts with new domains until the screen runs 0.2.14.
The self-test follows the packing, checks custom card parts and wide
widths, and diagnostics/send_layout.py pushes a demo layout of every
card type for render checks without Home Assistant. App 0.2.12,
firmware 0.2.14.

Large-value (watch) tiles show a small domain icon next to the title, centre
title and value vertically, use a dedicated larger digit font, truncate long
values with dots and keep the unit in its own label. The geometry self-test
checks the unit label too.
The Guition backlight now dims through the LEDC hardware fader (1.5 s to
standby, 80 ms wake) so full LVGL redraws no longer make the transition
stutter; ESPHome's light state is synced after each fade. Firmware 0.2.13;
app 0.2.11 stays compatible. Document the shared build directory pitfall.
