This repository provides a custom firmware and backend system for the Sonoff NSPanel smart touchscreen switch, replacing its stock interface with a Home Assistant Lovelace-like UI. The system consists of three core components: a Nextion display firmware (HMI files) rendered on the panel, a Tasmota Berry driver that handles serial communication and flashing, and a backend application running as an AppDaemon app in Home Assistant or as a standalone MQTT manager. The backend processes YAML configuration, manages localization across 38 languages, maps icons to Unicode glyphs, and synchronizes entity states between Home Assistant and the panel via MQTT. The repository also includes extensive documentation, CI/CD workflows for building Docker images and validating HMI changes, and integration examples for ioBroker and IP-Symcon. While primarily an application, it contains substantial data artifacts such as translation JSON files and icon mapping tables that support the UI.
ioBroker.vis is a visualization adapter for the ioBroker smart home platform, providing a web-based dashboard editor and runtime. It renders interactive views composed of widgets that bind to ioBroker data points (states/objects) via a real-time socket.io connection. The architecture is monolithic: a single-page application served by an ioBroker adapter, with all editor and runtime logic bundled in global JavaScript files using jQuery, CanJS, jQuery UI, and a homebrewed binding DSL. The widget system supports inline transformations (math, date formatting, JSON extraction) and extensibility via external widget sets. Development of this version has been officially stopped in favor of the rewritten vis-2 adapter, and the repository only receives critical fixes. The codebase exhibits significant technical drift due to outdated dependencies (jQuery 1.x, deprecated AppCache, IE8 polyfills), a monolithic design with tight coupling, and a license inconsistency (CC BY-NC in source files versus MIT in package.json). It is functional but should not be used for new projects.
