A library is for coding in the classical sense. Declaring in YAML is a very light form of coding I would say, much more accessible to non-engineers. A simple dashboard in YAML is so much more readable to a human than…
Yes you can! Chart can have links assigned, either automatically or dynamically. Those links can either take you to drill down pages with the data listed out, or it can dynamically change filter/variable values and…
I don't quite understand the YAML hate from some people. I agree that Helm is messy, but it has a lot of coding like things in YAML and then it feel like dependencies just live randomly somewhere. For the most part our…
AI can definitely generate whatever you tell it to do, but what to do with that artifact afterwards? If you want it to be reusable it needs to be a well-defined structured protocol/language. What good is a YAML…
We actually use vega-lite under the hood. vega-lite is vast tool set to build charts with static data. dbt Charts adds a whole layer on top of that, which is dashboards with repeatable SQL queries. Also dbt Charts comes…
Sure, machines don't need visualization (although it seems that images are a surprisingly good medium to get context into agents), but humans still do. Mathematicians have plotted functions for a long time now. While…
I think we're still ways out until companies will blindly trust AI that the data they pulled is correct. If a data team member sees a dashboard or chart, their first questions is "Is the SQL below this chart correct?".…
A beacon of hope between all the vibe coded JS slop charts and dashboards! I love that this creates artifacts that are readable, maintainable and reproduce the same dashboard consistently (deterministically!), just with…
