Very cool. And not more than I wanted hear. I like seeing how people solve problems using control and automation technologies There’s sooooo many different kinds of solutions possible.

Re: main page of the webgui
I think its difficult to design a single UI to cover such a broad range of users, from an expert user managing 40+ controllers to a single non-technical resi user. Your control app allows you to custom design a UI and the underlying functions to fit your needs. The web and mobile apps can still be used when appropriate. You can focus your app on the things that make managing a big installation easy for you and modify it over time as you refine what’s needed.

Providing a status-at glance dashboard and diagnostic functions seem like items that would be useful to you but difficult/time consuming with the supplied UIs.

Thanks for sharing
