Hello!
I noticed that many people in this community not only want to create dashboard, but want to create beautiful, visually appealing dashboards (and/or applications).
Why does it matter ? User interface & user experience has a huge impact to convince people to use a dashboard/app. And on user retention.
Even if I am not a professional UI/UX design (not at all), I learned a few things since I started web development 10 years ago, and I tried to summarize them in this article:
Keys principles are:
- Pick a font
- Pick colors correclty
- Beware of hierarchy
- Space things out
- Remember to style charts too
- Use pre-made components
Thorough the article, I guide you to these steps with one example dashboard that I improve one step at a time.
I hope this will be useful.
Let me know what you think
