We know that "graphing" functions aren't yet available, so this was brute forced in a way.

I am not a programmer or proficient with HA or YAML, so this is the best solution I could adapt. Using helper functions (to allow easy universal access to the variables), the automation runs every 3 hours and triggers a systematic update of historical data. It may be possible to use this to actually build a bar graph or a line graph where the length, size, color, or location of the line or bar is driven off these helpers/globalvariables.

I think we're only scratching the surface of what this can do for accessible hobby displays.

Trigger model here:
