## What it is
just-dashboard is a JavaScript library that generates interactive dashboards from declarative YAML or JSON files, rendering charts like pie, bar, line, and gauge via D3. Dashboards can be self-hosted or shared by pointing the service at a GitHub gist containing a dashboard.yml or dashboard. file.

## Use cases
- create a dashboard from a yaml file
- visualize csv or  data as charts
- share a dashboard via a github gist
- build a quick business intelligence dashboard without a backend
- make pie charts and bar charts from config files
- turn a  spec into an interactive dashboard

## When to choose
- you want dashboards defined declaratively in YAML/JSON with minimal code
- you need a zero-backend way to share dashboards via GitHub gists
- you need common chart types (pie, bar, line, gauge, scatter) quickly

## When to avoid
- you need highly custom or complex interactive visualizations beyond the built-in chart types
- you require real-time streaming data dashboards
- you need enterprise BI features like access control or scheduled reports

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: data-visualization, charts, templating
- domain: data-visualization, data-science, analytics, web-development
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: dashboard, yaml, d3, gist-hosting, business-intelligence, web-server, nodejs
