piitaya/lovelace-mushroom 5.1k By Paul Bottein Last release 31 July 2026

A coordinated family of compact cards with visual editors. People reach for it for the look, plus its chips and templating.

Author: Paul Bottein @piitaya
Latest release: v5.2.2 31 July 2026
GitHub stars: 5.1k
Install via: HACS Free, Apache-2.0

Maintenance: Actively maintained: v5.2.2 landed in July 2026 with commits since, and it needs Home Assistant 2025.10 or newer.

Built in instead: Tile now covers most single-entity control. The chips row and the template card are what core still has no answer for.
