## What it is
A set of Node-RED nodes for quickly building live data dashboards served at a /ui endpoint. It provides widgets, layout management, and websocket-based live updates, though the project is deprecated as of June 2024.

## Use cases
- build a live monitoring dashboard for IoT sensor data in Node-RED
- visualize real-time data streams from Node-RED flows
- create a control panel UI with buttons and sliders for home automation
- display charts and gauges fed by Node-RED messages
- quickly prototype a web UI without writing frontend code

## When to choose
- you already use Node-RED and need a fast dashboard with minimal code
- you maintain a legacy Node-RED deployment already using this dashboard
- you need simple widgets like gauges, charts, and buttons wired to flows

## When to avoid
- starting a new project - it is deprecated and based on unmaintained Angular v1
- you need long-term security support or new features
- you want a modern dashboard - consider FlowFuse Dashboard or UIBUILDER instead
