How to create a custom dashboard in WeWeb?

Step 1: Sign Up or Log In to WeWeb

Head over to the WeWeb website. If you’re new, sign up for an account. If you’ve been here before, just log in.

Step 2: Create a New Project

Once you’re in, hit the "New Project" button on your dashboard. Give your project a name and fill in the basics like description and who you’re targeting.

Step 3: Choose a Template or Start from Scratch

WeWeb has a bunch of templates to choose from. Pick one that suits you, or if you’re feeling adventurous, start from scratch and build your dashboard your way.

Step 4: Add a New Page

Go to the "Pages" section in the sidebar and click "Add Page." Name this new page "Dashboard" and pick a layout that works for you.

Step 5: Add and Customize Widgets

On your dashboard page, drag and drop widgets from the library. You can add charts, graphs, tables, and text boxes. Customize each widget’s look and data source in the settings.

Step 6: Connect Data Sources

To fill your widgets with data, connect your project to data sources like databases, APIs, or CSV files. Go to the "Data" tab and click "Add Data Source" to set these up.

Step 7: Configure Data Binding

For each widget, set up data binding to link it to your data sources. This makes sure your widgets show live data. Select the widget, go to settings, and map the data fields.

Step 8: Implement Interactivity

WeWeb lets you add interactive elements like filters, search bars, and buttons. Add these to your dashboard to make it more user-friendly. Define actions and triggers in the settings to make it dynamic.

Step 9: Style Your Dashboard

Use WeWeb’s design tools to style your dashboard. Change colors, fonts, and layout to match your brand or taste. Head to the "Style" tab for these options.

Step 10: Preview and Test

After setting up your dashboard, use the preview feature to test it out. Check all widgets, data bindings, and interactive elements to make sure everything works.

Step 11: Publish Your Dashboard

Once you’re happy with everything, go to the "Deploy" section and choose how you want to publish. WeWeb offers options like publishing to a custom domain or embedding it in another app.

Step 12: Maintain and Update

After publishing, keep your dashboard updated with new data and tweak it based on feedback. You can always go back into WeWeb to make edits and redeploy.
