Overview

Tipboard is a system for creating dashboards, written in JavaScript and Python. Its widgets (‘tiles’ in Tipboard’s terminology) are completely separated from data sources, which provides great flexibility and relatively high degree of possible customizations.

Because of its intended target (displaying various data and statistics in your office), it is optimized for larger screens.
