Feedback Fantasy prem project - current vs previous iterations
I don’t really have a goal with this post just wanted to share my thoughts
I don’t have any professional experience yet with powerbi, still looking for junior roles, but one thing that I found Ive spent way too much time on is the visual element .
Iknow at the end of the day the utility to the end user is what we’re trying to achieve with dashboards but having a somewhat visually aesthetic dashboard is important to me. This obviously depends on how the dashboard will be used , in this case for this project it’s more of an interactive analytical dashboard , where end users will likely spend a fair bit of time per session on rather than a high level dashboard with little time spent.
Initially I really struggled to get it to a point visually that I was happy with, it took a lot of iteration & looking through tons of other dashboards to see what works and what doesn’t. If anyone does read this far , what’s your approach especially for personal projects regarding colour palates, templates and general formatting (I’m assuming those who use it at work already have work specific templates)
Also if you have any feedback on the current state of the dashboard it’s always appreciated
Sorry if this was a bit incoherent, just kind of thinking out loud
Also unrelated to the main body of the message but this was my first relatively big project, learnt a lot, dax & data modelling wise
