I would like to share my first custom card, created for the V2C Trydan charger. It is a card developed with AI assistance to easily monitor and control the V2C Trydan electric vehicle charger from Home Assistant.
Created with AI
I had the idea of creating a specific card for the V2C charger. Since I could not find an updated card specifically designed for my charger, I decided to create one myself. With the help of Codex AI, I have been able to create this card, which I hope will be useful.
Now that I have it working on my dashboard, I would like to share it with the community in case it can also help other users.
If you have any ideas or find any problems, please let me know so that I can consider adding new features or fixing the issues.
