Hey guys, any progress to get Custom UI working in combo with Lovelace?

He is also working on the lovelace project. Probably did not want to keep both projects up.

Ah ok. I have my config pointing directly to his repo for the html files required. So my Tiles are not showing up now. Where else can I find these files ?
Can someone please share their Tiles files?
Cheers 
Is custom-ui-tiles being Implemented in Lovelace?
I hope so, because the tiles have way more options than lovelace atm.
but lovelace has a lot of potential

I donāt get why this repo is gone. I get itās not being updated anymore because of work on Lovelace, but since thereās no tiles like functionality working in Lovelace, not to mention itās still experimental, is there any reason why it canāt be used? I was looking for the instructions to add some more tiles and since itās gone I have to rely on my memory which isnāt very good at times. Any chance we can have the repo back, or at least the last instructions? It would be much appreciated.

You can get almost exactly the same functionality with picture templates in Lovelace. Itās not really more complicated, just another way of doing it and really you get more control.
Third picture down in this link is my first go at Tileāish in Lovelace. Config is in this file.

Thanks. Iāve been playing with Lovelace but canāt get a button or icon to change to a colour based on on/off state. May just be something Iāve missed in the documentation but for scenes itās nice to know which one is currently on. For some reason, only the picture-glance seems to change the colour based on the state. Canāt replicate the tiles like functionality. Ideas?
Iām guessing you need state image
Thanks for sharing your example, Iāll definitely be taking some time to explore your config 
For your tile implementation - doesnāt the click only work on the icon itself (vs the entire tile/button)? Iām trying to think of how I could have the tile change, including the background color. Iām trying to replicate the homekit UI to a certain degreeā¦ Maybe itās just a full size button image over a button template imageā¦Iāll have a go, but would be interested if you have any ideas/experiences!
Can you pass data value to script with lovelace?
This is from tiles:
- entity: script.press_button
icon: mdi:arrow-left-thick
column: 1
row: 5
data:
value: leftI recreated my device tracker tiles as previously posted above in Lovelaceā¦
ā¦as you can see they are identical to those I posted previously and now use only one colour image as the state is handled by CSS now rather than image replacement, example of one tile belowā¦
- type: image
entity: device_tracker.huawei_p10_lite
tap_action: more-info
image: /local/images/tracker/sam.png
state_filter:
'not_home': saturate(0.0) opacity(50%)
style:
top: 50%
left: 86%
width: 22%
# padding: 50px 50px 100px 50px
border-radius: 5%
I made a white background image to force the card to be the proportions I wanted.

I did spend the weekend experimenting with Lovelace and itās true, pretty much everything can be replicated with one exception, thereās no current way of changing the background of a non-image based on the theme thatās being used. For instance If Iām using an icon on a background that changes color depending on the state, it turns grey or yellow. I can partially replicate the on/off state by making a two pictures, one totally transparent and the other a solid color of the on state, but thatās a workaround vs having something that changes with the themes.
There is also an issue with picture-elements and state-icon where the icon doesnāt actually reflect the different on/off state. I raised that issue on github.
Awesome!! That does the trick! Thanks
