[+] Tech Stack
During my Internship at UniConverge Technologies, I worked on a project called UCT Dashboard. It is a fullstack web based application that allows to easily create a dynamic dashboard to present data in a visually appealing and interactive way.
UniConverge Technologies is an IOT solution provider that is why a dashboard was required to represent the enormous unfiltered data collected through various devices and sensors in a user friendly and client accessible manner.
Key Features
- Multi-Dashboard Support
- Dynamic Dashboard Widgets
- Live Data with time based automatic & manual refresh
- Draggable and Resizable
- Zoom and Pan for Graphs
- Multiple Widget Types
- Line Chart, Bar Chart, Scatter Plot, Text Tile, Meter, Gauge, Button etc.
- User Authentication & Management
- Import/Export of Dashboard
The Outcome
The goal was to achieve an MVP(Minimum Viable Product) that is a functional dashboard, with rich feature set. UI/UX was not a priority because it can be refined after successful internal test runs.
Here’s how easy it is to add a tile widget to dashboard showing live data from a public API endpoint https://api.coindesk.com/v1/bpi/currentprice.json
Below is a short demo showcasing the widget system of the dashboard, with full support for drag-drop, resize and automatic as well as manual data refresh.
Flow for the import-export functionality is also simple and user friendly allowing pre-made dashboards from the company to be shared to the clients.
This project was a great learning experience and I am very happy with the result.
