For those who dont know, Panda Touch is a screen that provides info from your Bambu printers, but since some updates ago the screen is no longer connecting to Bambu Cloud, so it became useless.
I asked Claude to reconvert it to an office ESPhome dashboard, so now it can turn on lights and show me the printer status via Bambu integration.
Much more useful than before :)

If you've ever dug through configuration.yaml just to exclude a noisy entity from the recorder, you know the pain.

I built GUI Recorder — a Home Assistant custom component that adds a sidebar panel to manage everything recorder-related without touching a single line of YAML:

• Toggle recording per entity or per device with a simple switch
• See DB stats: total records, disk size, obsolete entries, SQLite path
• Purge by entity, by device, or globally — right from the UI
• Detect orphaned exclusions and clean them up in one click
• Guided migration from your existing recorder: block in configuration.yaml

It just got approved by HACS, so you can install it directly**.**

HACS → Integrations → Search "GUI Recorder" → Install

SQLite only (MariaDB/PostgreSQL are out of scope for now). Still early, feedback welcome.
