# CB-LCARS

> CB-LCARS is a dashboard card for Home Assistant. It has 111 GitHub stars and was last updated July 13, 2026.

CB-LCARS is a dashboard card collection that brings Star Trek LCARS styling to Home Assistant, built on custom-button-card. It provides cards for elbows, double elbows, buttons, labels, a d-pad and a multimeter that works as a slider or a gauge. The multimeter can control light properties such as brightness and hue, or media player volume, and its background can be split into colour ranges. Colours, borders, text, icons and animations respond to entity state, and some controls can match the colour of a light. Symbiont mode applies LCARS styling to other cards placed inside it. It is meant to be used with the HA-LCARS theme, is a hobby project, and receives no further updates.
