If I would like to have more options for configuring my Lovelace dashboards but I don’t really fancy editing YAML code.
Is there an addition/Plugin/HACS-feature I can use to extend the functionality of the point and click editing I can do in Lovelace without having to do my configurations in YAML?
It depends on what you want to do.
Some specific things might be possible with point and click and others will not.
All core cards have visual editors.
Visual editors for custom cards are up to the developer of the card.
In particular, I’m looking for a way to have buttons in lovelace that doesn’t take up so much space
Currently, my buttons look like this (in comparison, a ful weather forecast can easily fit in the same space.
Try the Tile card, in either one of the stacks or in a grid.
A card is a certain width and the card will take up that width.
There are cards for putting more cards inside the top card, like horizontal stack and vertical stack.
