A Rails engine port of Shopify's Dashing dashboard framework for building real-time, widget-based dashboards in Ruby on Rails applications. It supports custom widgets with SCSS/HTML/CoffeeScript, data bindings via batman.js, and pushing data through an API with Redis.
Use cases
- build a real-time metrics dashboard in a Rails app
- display KPI dashboards on wall-mounted TVs
- create custom dashboard widgets with SCSS and CoffeeScript
- push live data to dashboards via an API
- host team status dashboards on Heroku
When to choose
- you have an existing Rails 4+ application and want embedded dashboards
- you want the Shopify Dashing experience integrated as a Rails engine
- you need drag-and-drop widget arrangement and real-time data updates
When to avoid
- you are not using Ruby on Rails
- you need actively maintained software - the last release was in 2020 and it depends on legacy tools like batman.js
- you want a modern dashboard stack without Redis and a multithreaded server requirement
