Summary
In this chapter, we explored the different components of a dashboard and looked at the different details we need to factor in. These techniques will take time to build, so approach your dashboard development in the same way, get something simple built early, and iterate on it. We talked about the visualizations available for panels and inspiration on websites such as play.grafana.org. Have some fun, and try out alternative methods to present your data and find a style you like. Finally, we looked at some tricks and tips to improve your dashboarding, wrapping up with some simple ideas to help you manage your dashboards.
In the next chapter, we will learn about incident management and the great tools available from Grafana that support it.
