Introduction

Sections Mod extends Home Assistant's native Sections dashboards without replacing them.

You keep using the standard Home Assistant dashboard editor. There is no custom dashboard, no dashboard duplication, and no custom card hierarchy. The dashboard definition never changes — only its runtime rendering does.

The idea

A dashboard with several sections:

Section 1
Section 2
Section 3

can optionally render as a set of horizontal, swipeable pages:

| Section 1 | Section 2 | Section 3 |

Each section becomes one page. No dashboard duplication. No card duplication.

Principles

• The dashboard stays a standard Home Assistant Sections dashboard.
• Everything keeps working: tile cards, conditional cards, voice cards, Browser Mod, the drag & drop editor, and future Home Assistant releases.
• Swipe is only the first layout. Sections Mod is a runtime layout engine — standard, swipe, carousel, kiosk, TV and device-specific layouts. The content never changes; only the renderer does.

Status

Sections Mod is under active, iterative development. See the architecture overview for how it works under the hood.
