One of the big highlights in this release is the introduction of an extended iconset to be used in the frontend (credits to <a href="https://github.com/happyleavesaoc">@happyleavesaoc</a> for idea and prototype). To get started with customizing, pick any icon from <a href="https://MaterialDesignIcons.com">MaterialDesignIcons.com</a>, prefix the name with <code>mdi:</code> and stick it into your <code>customize</code> section in <code>configuration.yaml</code>:</p>

Inspried by a <a href="https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/issues/310">feature requests</a> I started looking into the available options to do monitoring of remote hosts. The feature request is about displaying system information in a similar way than the <a href="/components/sensor.systemmonitor/">systemmonitor</a> sensor does it for the local system. After a while I started to think that it would be a nice addition for a small home network where no full-blown system monitoring setup is present.</p>
