Room Management
Dashboard: Room Management
Path: room-management
Admin interface for creating, deleting, and managing room configurations and automation helpers.
Summary
The Room Management dashboard serves as the administrative backend for the home's room logic. It allows users to initialize new rooms (creating necessary helper entities) or delete existing ones. It features a dynamic "Configured Rooms" section powered by auto-entities, which automatically lists all configured rooms and provides collapsible controls for their automation modes, occupancy sensors, and timeouts.
