Multi Status Indicator Card

A compact, configurable Home Assistant custom card that displays multiple entity states as labeled icons in a flexible grid layout. Supports tap-to-toggle, state-based coloring, last-changed timestamps, and multiple entity types.

Yes, this is similar to the default HA Glance card, but I wanted something more compact.

Supported Entity Types

The card automatically handles toggling for these entity domains:

• switch - toggle
• light - toggle
• input_boolean - toggle
• automation - toggle
• fan - toggle
• cover - toggle (open/close)
• lock - lock/unlock
• climate - turn_on/turn_off
• media_player - turn_on/turn_off

For other entity types with on/off states, the card will attempt a generic turn_on/turn_off service call.
