Overview - Features - Customization

Even though the base stack of Blinky-Lite applications should fit almost all of a user’s needs, custom user applications are an integral part of any control platform. However, developing event-driven control applications can be very challenging.

Blinky-Lite provides an application builder that makes it easy for the user to build their own custom dashboard application, without having to do any programming. The application builder has a basic library of widgets based on Boostrap 4 cards. The user just configures a JSON file in the Blinky-Lite app database.

Currently, the app builder has nine different types of cards and thirteen different types of widgets, which should cover almost all of the use cases a user will need. However, Blinky-Lite also has a framework for developing custom application cards that fit seamlessly into the Blinky-lite ecosystem.
