What is DaC?

DaC is a dashboard-as-code tool from Bruin. Build interactive dashboards using YAML and JSX with a built-in semantic layer, and have your agents produce standardised, reviewable dashboards.

Third-party open-source projects. We are not affiliated with their authors; repositories are provided as-is by their maintainers. Review each project's license, code and security before installing. See our Disclaimer.

Pros: what DaC does well

  • Dashboards are versioned and reviewable
  • Agents can build them consistently
  • Built-in semantic layer

Cons: where it falls short

  • AGPL-3.0 licence has strict terms for modified versions
  • Code-based rather than drag and drop

Who DaC is for

Data teams who want dashboards in version control.

Who can skip it

People who prefer point-and-click BI tools.
