I would like to be able to customize the name and icon using variables. If I want to customize other things, I have the knowledge and experience to create my own custom card. For those who may want extended functionality but do not know how to make their own custom card, there should be a written guide on how to implement their own customizations by making their own custom card. |

I have a couple of buttons that display the name and label of a sensor, but runs a script when tapped. I haven't been able to get this working since the 1.0 changes, but the original code is as follows:
An easy way to not only update icons, colors, etc., but to set custom actions for the whole card would be great. Three components within the card makes it more complicated to simply make the whole button run one action on tap. |

The step to
v1.0.*
releases has introduced extra complexity to the template's framework (with more nested layers). This to make things more user-friendly.Starting this discussion after #820
As the negative effect is that most cards are not easily customizable anymore without using the power of the accompanying variables.
We have brought a bit of this customizability back with the
v1.0.2
release for mainly setting names and icons.Now the question is to what extent should we make customizing available through variables without being difficult or very time-consuming to set a dashboard up. As button-card offers a lot of types of customizability. We cannot offer it all as that will defeat the purpose of this project to offer easy useable and minimalist-themed templates. Because at that level of customizability it seems better to use button-card directly.
Generally interested in thoughts on this from you!
