👀 Summary
Hey folks!
We continuing adding new features in V3. This release I am proud to announce a better way to create, update and delete custom entities using MQTT discovery. The current way using the integration is not a safe way. We recommend any user to move to this extension instead if you need to create custom entities. Thanks to @skotl and @eugeneniemand for your hard work on this! See docs how to use this new feature. Finally we fixed the [Focus] to work like V2 with a warning if not in development environment.
Some other noticeable changes is that we did a better naming of input booleans representing app states. Your apps can get new names!. We also now remove all input booleans helpers that are not used anymore by an app at startup. Finally when using Developer environment we have different naming so it will not use the production one.
Last but not least we are now making sure we log any faulty service call so we can always find the causes of errors and not fail silently.
