# Dashboard Examples

Beautiful dashboard layouts using Tibber Prices sensors.

:::tip Entity ID tip
`<home_name>` is a placeholder for your Tibber home display name in Home Assistant. Entity IDs are derived from the displayed name (localized), so the exact slug may differ. **Can't find a sensor?** Use the **[Entity Reference (All Languages)](sensor-reference.md)** to search by name in your language.
