Now I just need to figure out how this works.

This would be a good start

First impression, I clicked to create a tile and got a list of my nodes.  Every folder was fully expanded by default.  The standard admin console seems to do this too.  This kind of defeats the whole idea of putting things in folders.  You should have them all default to closed and let the user drill down to what they want.  Having all the folders expanded is almost the same as not having folders.

Some will prefer "All Expanded" to start with. Eventually I will add Expand All/Collapse All buttons at the top.

In addition, I would say that instead of drilling down your folders, the search function is probably best to quickly get to the node you want.

Collapse all would be appreciated.  Expand all would not be a button I would ever press.  

Search function is super helpful when you know the name of what you are looking for, but it is not uncommon to not recall the exact name of what you are looking for. 

Why someone would want them all expanded is lost on me.  If that is what you like, save yourself the extra work and don't bother making any folders in the first place.

I have been following this topic very intently.  I finally got eisy-ui installed using ssh.  I have tried all combinations of commands to activate the new eisy-ui but to no avail. I finally tried http://eisy.local and https://eisy.local and the a login screen was presented.  I put in my e-mail address the changed my password (had forgotten it) and the system give me a message about an internet server and would not let me continue.  Anyone have any idea how I should continue.  Thanks in advance.

After conversing with bmercier about this issue, it was determined that my eisy UUID was not register on the portal.

UPDATE

@bmercier

Is the eisy ui intended to only be a user interface or an administrative interface?  As a user interface in my situation would get very limited use, but using it as administrative interface would be golden.  

Writing programs, creating/editing scenes, working on notifications, network resources, all that stuff.  The java admin console is just always hanging up.

That worked.

this folder issue was brought up a while ago in the alpha.  the response was that the fix comes with the next major isy update (perhaps the one @bmercier refers to above coming next week).

Troubles here.  I can only assume it is related to this update, but not sure.  I haven't done anything else.

Things in my house weren't working.  I Logged into admin console to see what was up, it had a pop error "loading nodes: retry".  It said "linking" in the bottom left corner.  Never seen this before.  It kept doing it and doing it.  I finally power cycled. 

Opening iox finder, listed was just a single ISY at https://mylocalip/desc    After I did the upgrade yesterday, it listed multiple versions of ISY at different ports.  Now just the one.

I now had to use my portal user/pass to log in even when selectin "lan".  OK, I think that was to be expected.

But what is up with it stuck in "loading nodes" and not doing anything.
