I'm excited to share the first phase of DVMDash's major redesign! After some recent downtime issues (thanks nostr:npub1e5tfhk8m65teu25dfx8lcvwn4c8ypqjl72u2sh4rt8zy2kss0j5qct7mh9 and nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn for the heads up), I've been working on rebuilding DVMDash from the ground up to be more modular, scalable, and reliable.
## What's Live Now: The Stats App
The first piece of the new DVMDash is our completely rebuilt Stats app. Instead of trying to do everything at once, we're now breaking DVMDash into focused tools. The Stats app brings:
- Flexible time windows (1h, 24h, 7d, 30d) for more relevant insights
- Bar graphs showing activity over time
- Per-DVM and per-Kind detailed metrics
For those interested in the new backend architecture, check out my [recent post about performance gains](nostr:naddr1qvzqqqr4gupzpkscaxrqqs8nhaynsahuz6c6jy4wtfhkl2x4zkwrmc4cyvaqmxz3qqxnzdenxu6nwd3sxgmryv3506t7ws) describing how horizontal scaling is needed to support the growing DVM ecosystem.
## Coming Soon: Debug Tools and Playground
You'll notice on the new [landing page](https://dvmdash.live) that DVMDash is now split into three main tools:
1. Stats (available now!)
2. Debug Tools (coming soon)
3. Data Vending Playground (coming soon)
The Debug Tools will bring back the interactive graph-based debugger and event browser, while the Playground will offer a space to experiment with DVMs directly. I'm focusing on getting these right rather than rushing them out.
## Running Locally
Want to try it out? You can clone the repository and run the Stats app locally with a simple
```
docker compose --profile all up
```
then visit **localhost:3000** in your browser.
## What's Next
My immediate focus is on:
1. Polishing the Stats app with new features like:
* Sortable tables for easier data analysis
* Enhanced DVM profiles with pictures and metadata from relays
* More detailed DVM-specific metrics
2. Bringing back the debugging tools
3. Building out the playground
This is very much a work in progress, and I appreciate your patience as we rebuild. If you run into any issues or have suggestions, please drop by our GitHub repository.
