Does this skill handle the actual coding of the dashboard?

No, this skill is focused on design and architecture. After completing the 3 steps, you should use the 'dashboard-build' skill for implementation and testing.

What is the primary purpose of the dashboard-design skill?

It provides a structured 3-step workflow to plan, layout, and select visualizations for Vizro dashboards before any implementation code is written.

How does it handle grid layouts?

It uses a recommended 12-column grid strategy and provides specific row/column height guidelines optimized for the Vizro framework.

Can I skip the design steps for simple projects?

While the skill allows for abbreviated steps for simple dashboards (less than 5 charts), it strongly advises against skipping them entirely to maintain quality and documentation.

What documentation does this skill create?

The skill generates three specific YAML files in a 'spec/' directory: information architecture, interaction UX, and visual design specifications.

设计工具

Guides users through a structured 3-step framework to architect, layout, and select visualizations for high-quality Vizro data applications.

关于

The dashboard-design skill is a specialized planning tool for the Vizro low-code framework. It enforces a rigorous design-first methodology that separates requirements gathering, layout architecture, and visualization selection from the implementation phase. By generating standardized YAML specification files at each step, it ensures that data apps are built with a clear purpose, logical grid structure, and effective visual communication. This skill is essential for developers looking to create professional-grade, user-centric dashboards while avoiding common UI/UX pitfalls in data visualization.

主要功能
