Creating Dashboards

This handles the full stack of building analytics dashboards: KPI cards with trend indicators, coordinated filtering across widgets, drag-and-drop layouts with react-grid-layout, and real-time updates via SSE or WebSockets. It pushes you toward Tremor for quick fixed dashboards or react-grid-layout for customizable ones, with concrete patterns for lazy loading widgets and smart polling fallbacks. The examples cover everything from basic metric cards to full customizable grids with persistent layouts. It's opinionated about architecture choices (SSE over polling, specific state management patterns) which saves you from reinventing dashboard infrastructure. Good if you're building BI tools or SaaS admin panels and want tested patterns instead of starting from scratch.

Creating Dashboards

Purpose

This skill enables the creation of sophisticated dashboard interfaces that aggregate and present data through coordinated widgets including KPI cards, charts, tables, and filters. Dashboards serve as centralized command centers for data-driven decision making, combining multiple component types from other skills (data-viz, tables, design-tokens) into unified analytics experiences with real-time updates, responsive layouts, and interactive filtering.
