Open Source Ruby Dashboard Software

Grafana OSS is the leading open-source platform for visualization and observability. It enables teams to query, visualize, alert on, and explore telemetry data from multiple sources in a single interface. With support for 100+ data source plugins—including Prometheus, Loki, Elasticsearch, InfluxDB, SQL/NoSQL databases, and OpenTelemetry—Grafana helps teams correlate metrics, logs, and traces across applications and infrastructure. Users can build interactive dashboards with rich visualizations, template variables, and reusable panels to monitor systems and troubleshoot issues in real time. Grafana includes capabilities such as ad hoc data exploration, alerting, annotations, and flexible query support. Its extensible plugin ecosystem integrates with cloud platforms, databases, and developer tools—allowing teams to build observability workflows without vendor lock-in. The easiest way to get started with Grafana is with Grafana Cloud, our fully managed, full-stack observability platform.

A framework for creating flexible, powerful admin dashboards in Rails. Administrate is still pre-1.0, and there may be occasional breaking changes to the API. Check the release notes for important updates. Administrate is a library for Rails apps that automatically generates admin dashboards. Administrate's admin dashboards give non-technical users clean interfaces that allow them to create, edit, search, and delete records for any model in the application. Administrate solves the same problem as Rails Admin and ActiveAdmin, but aims to provide a better user experience for site admins, and to be easier for developers to customize. To accomplish these goals, Administrate follows a few guiding principles, such as support the simplest use cases, and let the user override defaults with standard tools such as plain Rails controllers and views, and break up the library into core components and plugins, so each component stays small and easy to maintain.

Active Admin is a Ruby on Rails plugin for generating administration style interfaces. It abstracts common business application patterns to make it simple for developers to implement beautiful and elegant interfaces with very little effort. Customizable global navigation allows you to create usable admin interfaces for your business. Use the bundled Devise configuration or implement your own authorization using the provided hooks. Use scopes to create sections of mutually exclusive resources for quick navigation and reporting. Add buttons, links or other content in the “Action Items” section on each screen. Index screens are available in many styles. The default, shown here, is a table view, but Active Admin also supports Grids, Blocks and a Blog view. Allow users to filter resources by searching strings, text fields, dates, and numeric values. Customize the sidebar sections with a simple DSL built in to Active Admin.
