I want to display a horizontal stack with two cards: dining-lights (group; state) and timer-left. I created a stack with two mushroom entity cards, but the second one only shows "active". How do I display the remaining time there?
#How do I show timer-remaining in a card?

Remaining state attribute is not a countdown timer. It does not update as time counts down.

oops! what should I use? and how? 🙂

What kind of card are you using? Is "timer" a card?
oh nvm you said mushroom entity.

I created a helper of type timer. That's all so far. I'm open to using other types of cards.

If you add a timer to a tile card it will show the remaining time by default
Or an entities card

I believe that it does that by creating its own timer in the frontend to mirror the one handled in the backend, so you're limited in what you can do to change how or where it's displayed

I operate my helper-timer from Node-red, so I want to display it. Is there a way?

Yes. Create a tile card. For entity, give it your timer. That's all you have to do.

that worked, thank you!
