What problem does it solve? Building dashboards that people actually trust and use requires more than dropping charts on a page: metrics need precise definitions, data states need handling, and layouts need verification across viewports. This Skill provides a structured workflow for designing, implementing, and validating operational dashboards. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Metric Contract Definition: Establish exact definitions, units, sources, refresh times, baselines, and missing-data states for every KPI before building. - Chart and Layout Guidance: Choose the right visual form (line, bar, scatter, distribution, table, progress) and organize information hierarchy for scanning and comparison. - State and Accessibility Verification: Implement loading, empty, error, stale, and permission-limited states, then verify responsive layout, keyboard access, contrast, and calculation accuracy. - Use Case: A product team needs an operations dashboard showing weekly active users, error rates, and deployment status. Use this Skill to define each metric, build the dashboard within the existing project's design system, and validate it against real data including zero and missing values. ## Quick Start Use the dashboard-creator skill to build a KPI dashboard for our support ticket metrics, reusing the project's existing components and verifying the layout on desktop and mobile.
