Hey everyone! Dashing creator here. Thanks for the frontpage :)

I have good news for you all. Dashing will be evolving soon to support multiple backends. Already there are ports being written for python, perl, .net, and also better rails integration. Stay tuned!

P.S: Sorry for the downtime. Was not expecting frontpage. While I work on getting it stable, enjoy this screenshot: http://cl.ly/image/321Y2V361X1r




It looks really good. We're just about to start building a dashboard so this could be really useful. We're using emberjs though, is it possible to use just the views and the layout code? I'm thinking along the lines of a dashboard bootstrap.


I think you want gridster then: http://gridster.net/


Thanks, that looks perfect!


I'm going to use this literally the moment you release rails support. Hell, let me beta test it!

We have a platform that really needs this, so I'm looking forward to using it immensely.


Great work - this looks amazing. Do you have a mailing list I can subscribe to to get notification of when the .net version becomes available? Thanks!

It would be nice to have a github org for dashing and all its ports. That could take some of the burden of all the ports off of you.

I know its part of shopify organization now, but there is a lot of interest I know I would love to contribute to other backends as well


They won't be maintained by Shopify. Only the frontend & ruby backend will be under Shopify.


Looks good. I have used geckoboard in the past but would like to customize my own internal dashboard to use this. Kudos for using Sinatra!


How do I stay tuned for the Python version?


Ah, found it: https://github.com/evolvedlight/pydashie


do you have the link to the perl port? thx
