This recipe is my version of providing a "large clock" face in the home assistant dashboard.

Enable serving local static files:

  • Create directory www in your config directory.
  • Restart home assistant.
  • Static files are now available as http://homeassistant.local:8123/local/.

Place the HTML with your clock in a file i.e. $config/www/clock.html. I am using this:

type: iframe
url: /local/clock.html
aspect_ratio: 45%
