The full story
To reuse an old iPad 2, the poster asked Claude to build a web page that works in an old version of Firefox, with the Home Assistant sensors, switches and information they wanted. The page lives on the Home Assistant server and is opened on the iPad.
It includes a webcam image that refreshes every five seconds and expands to a full-screen live view when tapped, and devices can be switched from the screen. They say it "works really good".
