Module Native Card

Native HA Card

Module type: native_card · Category: Content · Free

Embed any built-in Home Assistant card inside an Ultra Card layout — Entities card, Glance, Conditional, History Graph, Map, Markdown, etc.

Why

You get HA's polished native cards plus Ultra Card's:

  • Drag-and-drop layout
  • Logic conditions wrapping the card
  • Per-breakpoint hiding
  • Background / border / shadow styling around the card
  • Custom variables substitution

Configuration

Card type

Pick from the dropdown of built-in HA cards (entities, glance, gauge, light, media-control, picture-glance, history-graph, weather-forecast, calendar, map, markdown, thermostat, etc.).

Card config

The standard YAML config for that card type. Ultra Card validates it and shows the card's normal editor where possible.

Logic / Design

Standard 4-tab editor — applies to the wrapper, not the embedded card. The native card decides its own internal styling.

Notes

  • HA's own card editor may not work in-place for every card type. If you can't edit visually, switch to YAML mode for that module.
  • The embedded card is a real HA element under the hood (<hui-card>-like), so it gets HA themes for free.
  • Multiple instances of the same card type can be embedded across one Ultra Card.
