This is quite an interesting project for me, as I started using Superset during its early days though not very frequently. One of the things that immediately attracted me was the ability to create dashboards that was something I really enjoyed exploring and experimenting with visualising data.
I noticed that some of the dashboards I had created in the early stages were later removed, possibly due to updates or changes in the service but I still remember it was good. Hope to see this idea continue in some way whether through community support or future tools :) Best Regards, *Jinoy* [[User:Gnoeee]] *Please don’t print this e-mail unless you really need to.Every 3000 sheets consume a tree.
