and this release introduces our redesigned badges!
This is a big revamp of the original badges that have been in Home Assistant since, well,
forever. The new badges are designed to match the design of the
[Mushroom] chip cards, and are
meant to sit at the top of a dashboard view, providing a summary of the most
important information that you need to know at a glance.

These new badges match the functionality of the previous design, but now are even more feature rich. They are of course fully configurable from the UI, allowing you to
fully tweak them to your needs. You can specify whether the icon, name, and/or
state will be visible, and you can configure the contents within each of them.

Everything can, of course, be dragged and dropped in the order you like 😎
Not just that, the new badges also come with visibility options, the same
as we have [introduced for cards in Home Assistant 2024.6](/blog/2024/06/05/release-20246/#control-visibility-of-cards).
This means you can show or hide them based on who is viewing the dashboard, what
screen size it is displayed within, whether an entity is in a certain state, and more.
