I would like a card in my Dashboard that just shows the day of the week. any ideas ???
This does nothing for me .
template:
- sensor:
- name: "Day of the Week"
state: "{{ now().strftime('%A') }}"
This will get you a sensor where the state will be the day of the week. You can use it before reading the “How to Ask for Help” section.
As per the documentation I linked to, the markdown card supports templates. So you do not need to make a template sensor for it, you can just put the template in the response above in the markdown card. The markdown card also supports formatting to make letters bigger.
type: markdown
content: "# **{{ now().strftime('%A') | upper }}**"
