Why Dashboards Matter

Dashboards help you understand what’s happening with your sensors in real-time. Whether it’s air quality, temperature, or motion—visualizing data improves decision-making.

Popular Tools

• Grafana for professional metrics
• Node-RED for customizable flows
• Custom JavaScript dashboards with libraries like Chart.js

Use Case

Display MQTT sensor data using Node-RED, then alert via Smart Alerts.

Best Practices

Use clear color schemes, enable mobile access, and refresh data automatically.
