What's next for Domoticz??

I noticed the “About” tab looks completely overhauled in the latest beta, though it might have happened earlier since I don’t check it that often. Maybe this is the start of a new default theme.

" read that more user made the remark about the dashboard. For the rest I am very happy with domoticz for almost 11 years now."

in my opinion the dashboard is fine, it does what it needs to do in terms of functionality.

I dont use the dashboard that much. In the past i started to use the template option in the gui & remoend that route to everyone : On that i have my html dashboard that is populated by domoticz scripts and changes constantly based on relevant information, time of day, persons in tha house. You can build what you want and how you like it.
Further my automationsystem takes care of 99% needed changes, almost no manual changed needed. Just sometimes it nice the check on the dash for some info or status.

(I dont develop my scripts based on : system, script language or hardware(=not only event driven or a state machine) or/and also never build a script just because i can or hardware does it.
I create a script only on User Experience(UX), that requires a different way of thinking . Based on routes, patterns and so on when its based on UX : things get fast very inuitive for every one, including WAF.)

Domoticz works very well but needs more functional plugins (many on github have not been updated for years) such as support for Android TV, Soundbars, native Chromecast and DLNA, media player to be able to play sound from automations and many others that are necessary and I think can be adapted from the existing ones for Home assistant by taking over the controls.

The statement is purely constructive because if there was greater compatibility with many devices, the community would grow. There are many who migrated to home assistant.

Maybe this is the start of a new default theme.

Not sure it's related, but there is now some big "roadworks" on webUI:

The angular changes take quite some time, and because the rendering is completely different, some small details could be overlooked.
The idea is that nobody will notice the difference, or at least not missing anything.
For this reason I might do a new stable release first...

There have been quite some changes the last week.

Maybe after the angular conversion, and a AngularJS-> Angular conversion, we could think about creating multiple dashboards, or user defined dashboards.

First thing s first, a new stable soon...
