I have a few input_booleans and input_numbers to configure things like when and if automations should run. It is nice to have them in the UI so I don’t have to change the config every time I would like to update the values. However, the frontend feels kind of cluttered when I add them, and usually I just end up with lots of tabs with configuration. Instead I would like to add them as different side panels (like HACS and configuration panel and such). Is there an easy way to create such a side panel without having to code a custom panel in javascript? I dont mind coding it, I just prefer to configure it just like the main UI if I can
A bit of a hack but I was curious if you could do this.
First use the link below to get a kisok view (no top bar no side bar)
Then use the url for a view and follow it with ?kiosk as the URL for an iframe_panel (ie. https://192.168.1.2:8123/lovelace/4?kiosk)
example:
panel_iframe:
automations:
title: 'Automations'
url: https://192.168.1.2:8123/lovelace/4?kiosk
icon: mdi:home-automation
If you don’t want the view to show, put it as the last view and use icon: mdi:blank
which will hide the icon and make it appear as its not there.
So super hacky, but it works.

Really like this despite the hackiness! Haven’t tried it yet on my system, but I cant think of anything that prevents me from using the same solution in several panels, right? In that case it would be a supersmooth solution since adding more panels would only require 3 more lines of code (per panel)!
