+The 25th edition of the Home Assistant Community Highlights! Some interesting
+things popped up around our community, which we thought was worth sharing.
+
+Also, keep an eye out for the ESPHome release next week Wednesday. We're
+going to have some great announcements!
+
+Do you want to share something for the next edition?

+## Blueprint of the week
+------
+
+Are there more people who turn their lights on and off at certain times
+when they go on holiday?
+
+{% my blueprint_import badge blueprint_url="https://community.home-assistant.io/t/vacation-lighting-replay-historical-lighting/282435" %}
+
+This week's blueprint is that of [timgiwo](https://community.home-assistant.io/u/timgiwo),
+who created a blueprint that can repeat the behavior of your lights from
+the past week, so it seems like you are still at home. Try it out! Read more
+about it on the [community forum][week_blueprint] or install this automation
+in your instance with a click on the My button!
+
+## Slider Button Card
+------
+
+<div style="margin:0 auto; text-align:center">
+    <a href="https://github.com/mattieha/slider-button-card" target="_blank">
+        <img
+            src='/images/blog/2021-06-11-community-highlights/button.gif'
+            alt="Preview of the button slider card"
+            style='border: 0;box-shadow: none;width:90%;margin-bottom:15px;'
+        />
+    </a>
+</div>
+
+[Mattieha](https://github.com/mattieha) made a [button card](https://github.com/mattieha/slider-button-card)
+that also included a slider, so you could, for example: switch a light but
+also immediately adjust the brightness with the slider. Useful for those who
+want to keep their dashboard compact.

+
+## Floorplan Dashboard
+------
+
+This week again we have a new Lovelace dashboard for the necessary portion
+of inspiration 😄 This time the one from [theone11](https://github.com/theone11)
+who has a [dashboard](https://github.com/theone11/HomeAssistantConfig) with a
+floorplan, definitely recommended to take a look at the repository because
+there is a lot of explanation on it.
+
+<div style="margin:0 auto; text-align:center; margin-bottom:15px">
+    <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/o_AKHEyWXR0" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
+</div>
+
+Would you also like your dashboard to be in the community highlight? Drop it
+on [Reddit][reddit] and maybe I'll pick it out for the next edition.
+
+## Ispindel
+------
+
+<div style="margin:0 auto; text-align:center">
+    <a href="https://github.com/alsFC/esphome-iSpindel" target="_blank">
+        <img
+            src='/images/blog/2021-06-11-community-highlights/ispindel.png'
+            alt="Preview of the ISpindel project"
+            style='border: 0;box-shadow: none;width:90%;margin-bottom:15px;'
+        />
+    </a>
+</div>
+
+Between the community submissions, we came across a [nice project](https://github.com/alsFC/esphome-iSpindel)
+that works with [ESPHome][esphome], it's a sensor with which you can
+monitor your own homebrew, for example, the alcohol percentage and the
+temperature. Cheers [Alexander](https://github.com/alsFC)! 🍻
