Sounds good to me.
You understand how those examples are to be used/tested?
BTW, they are NOT perfect and will need some tweaking to be exactly what you want.

Good to hear.
Oh, I'm not sure you are really done with this.
What you have now is control of the thermostat but it is on the edit screen.
Node-Red offers a GUI screen/interface and you can have a nicer looking GUI if you want.
The dashboard?
I have the GUI setup already.
Ok.
The dashboard is the GUI.
