Kpi Dashboard Design

This is a comprehensive pattern library for building KPI dashboards that actually inform decisions rather than just looking pretty. It covers the full spectrum from executive summaries with 4-6 headline metrics to department-specific views for sales, marketing, product, and finance. The breakdown of KPI frameworks (strategic, tactical, operational) is practical, and the ASCII dashboard layouts give you concrete starting points for different use cases like SaaS metrics or real-time operations monitoring. What stands out is the focus on hierarchy and context, ensuring you're not just throwing numbers on a screen but designing around who needs what and when. If you're past the "throw everything in a grid" phase and want structured thinking on metric selection and layout, this gives you a solid foundation.
