Currently with Portainer the "Dashboard" is of limited use because it doesn't really tell me much on the initial view. I get static values only (machine name, docker version, CPU core count and memory total). Below that are additional things I can open for more data but that's additional drilling down.
Even then information is somewhat spread out.
(Currently dashboard seems to largely duplicate the "Containers", "Images", "Networks" and "Volumes" items on the left menu strip in a slightly different order as well.)
What would be more useful I think would be a configurable dashboard where the administrator could add and configure various 'widgets' to show the information most useful to them.
I'll use what I'd like to see on the main dashboard for an example:
Each column would be sortable and the current UI elements of having controls on the top (as well as search & settings), checkboxes on the left and pagnation controls on the bottom are fine.
Options would include the more commonly used configuration options that a container might have such as a auto-restart, limitations, and so forth. (Currently you need to open inspect and drill down a bit to find these). Presentation would probably be best with small icons similar to the Quick Actions column.
Speaking of which, I'd like to see a couple more quick actions, like export / import container configuration.
Settings should have more as well, such as turning off columns that a particular installation may not need (Stack for one), and other options such as items per page.
The dashboard should also have a summary (if possible) such as the amount of CPU % and memory that docker as a whole (and it's containers) are currently using.
