For UI/UX designers, dashboard design is always a challenge of arranging lots of data in an effective and aesthetically pleasant way.

A dashboard is a type of user interface that visualizes particular KPIs (key performance indicators) for a specific goal or process. Dashboards are about data visualization and infographics. They help users quickly overview performance metrics, notice positive or negative trends, and measure efficiencies. Charts, diagrams, status bars, progress bars, and all sorts of filters — sometimes it can be hard to fit them all onto one screen. We have gathered some ideas to get you inspired and show how other designers solve the task.
