Pull Request Overview
This PR adds documentation for a new component.is_idle condition that checks whether a component has completed its setup and is not currently executing. The addition enables users to synchronize actions with component state, particularly useful for components like e-paper displays that require significant update time.
- Adds
component.is_idlecondition documentation with description and example - Positions the new condition entry before the existing
