SCSS / Widget HTML Changes Not Compiling

Hi,
I have everything up and running, system is a Raspberry Pi, running docker. I’ve been able to customize my ERB fine, but changes I am making in the SCSS and .HTML files don’t seem to be getting compiled in, even after restarting the pi / docker / etc. I’ve not really been able to track down where I would look to in order to find error logs on it - is there an error log for dashing separately that I would look to in order to see where things are going awry? Any guidance appreciated.

I would hold off on doing too much with styling at the moment. HADashboard v2 will be in public beta soon and it is a very different animal. It runs using AppDaemon now and includes features for skinning (something I am actually a part of working on and testing) so it will be infinitely easier to make it look like you want and layout will be a lot easier as well.

As Rob says, wait for v2 :).

The fact that you are using docker is problematic as it was never designed for widget development. You will need to recreate the docker image every time you make changes to the widgets which is obviously completely unworkable. V2 will be a lot kinder to docker users who want to create widgets.

Thanks. Looking forward to V2, I have a nagging need to figure this out anyhow, just because it says Rain instead of Precipitation in the weather widget. Paying the price for my OCD again, oh well:) I’ll ditch the docker and give it another go. Thanks!
