Miguel Gaspar started working at Webdetails about 3 years ago, some time before the acquisition of Webdetails by Pentaho. He was a consultant in the Implementation team and his work involved developing dashboard solutions as part of services. He is now acting as the technical owner of some of the Implementations projects as part of the Webdetails team in Pentaho. He likes to be as professional as possible, but in an informal way. One of his favorite hobbies is learning and his particular areas of interest are: business analytics, predictive analysis and big data, augmented reality, and cloud computing. He likes to play and is a huge martial arts fan and also one of the worst soccer players ever. He is married and a parent of two young and lovely daughters, who would like to spend more time playing like crazies with him. He also likes to spend time with friends or just having a drink and a good talk with someone else, if possible with his family at his side. He really hates liars.

Chapter 4. Leverage the Process with CDE

In the previous chapter, you saw how to create custom dashboards at the code level, and now you will see how to build them in an easier and faster way. Creating a custom dashboard should not be difficult and time-consuming, and CDE is a Pentaho server plugin that allows you to create, edit, and render a dashboard easily. CDE can build all the code for you, and you just need to use the graphical interface that CDE will make available to you to create or edit your dashboards.

The topics covered in this chapter are based on how to create a dashboard using a graphical user interface (GUI). You will gain knowledge on how to build a responsive layout for the dashboard, add components, add some custom code, and add resources (both JavaScript and CSS) to the dashboard to create and use data sources without the need to create the CDA file by hand. What you learn here will help you to leverage the process and decrease the development time of the dashboards...

Ever wonder why speech recognition systems don't understand the Scottish accent, or what would happen if an astronaut only ate mac 'n' cheese, or other spurious reflections you'd have at a bar? We did, then collated those deliberations into absurd research articles with fake figures and methodologies inspired by even more fictionally absurd studies.
