Wonderful app this IoT Manager. Like others took me a while to get used to its workings.
The idea is great: have all page layout defined by the "server". Keep up the good work.
And now for my questions, remarks:
1. Is the "range" widget still supported? I run 1.5.5 and do see a slider when using widget type set to range but find no documentation about its attributes. Most .ino example sketches are out of date I guess. Please update the widget documentation and make sure there is at least a widget like a slider available.
2. Could we have more control over the specific topic names? All button presses etc. always will be published as a topic that ends in control. I have devices that expect other topic names which cannot easily be modified.
3. How do profiles actually work? I played with the proLoader (iot-manager-profiles)
code and am able to save and load profiles. What are their purpose?
Since all lot of data is specified using JSON I started writing up a JSON schema for the
profiles and widgets. Any interest? Then I will publish it here.
Happy New Year to all Hackers
