Why is it powerful ?¶
The Dashboard Builder is:
- Embedded Stories & Tiles Editor
- Easy layout configuration through drag&drop and resize
- Responsive Layout
Two Grid System¶
To help you answer all kind of use cases, we offer you two different grid systems:
Simple Grid¶
A 4 columns grid useful for large screens. Responsiveness is handled by reducing the number of columns according to the window’s width.
- 4 columns: container’s width >= 1072px
- 3 columns: container’s width < 1072px and >= 728px
- 2 columns: container’s width < 728px and >=384px
- 1 column: container’s width < 384px
Dashboard Builder Simple Grid
Advanced Grid¶
A 12 columns grid (also known as the 960 System) is more flexible and precise (both in widths and heights). Responsiveness is handled by resizing the content widths while keeping the same number of columns. If the container width is less than 384px, the grid will be displayed only on 1 column.
