Static Portlets

Static portlets display fixed content that does not update in real time, serving to complement your dynamic onchain data visualizations with contextual information and branding elements. In Web3 analysis, static portlets are essential for providing explanations, commentary, or visual cues that enhance the overall understanding of the dashboard without being affected by real-time fluctuations.

Text Portlets

Best Use Cases

  • Use it to add descriptive text, notes, or instructions directly onto your dashboard. Clear text annotations help explain complex onchain data, guide the viewer through the analysis, and offer insights that support dynamic data visuals.

Best Practices

  • Keep content concise and directly related to the data analysis. Concise text reduces cognitive load and ensures that viewers quickly grasp the intended message.

Additional Tips

  • Include references to key onchain metrics or data sources within your annotations. This ties your descriptive text directly to critical data insights, enhancing the analytical context.

  • Regularly update text annotations to reflect the most current onchain trends. Keeping annotations up-to-date maintains the accuracy and relevance of your dashboard analysis.

Image Portlets

Best Use Cases

  • Use to embed images or graphics (such as logos, diagrams, or custom illustrations) that enhance the dashboard’s visual appeal and context. High-quality visuals reinforce branding and provide supplementary information that can clarify the narrative of onchain trends.

Best Practices

  • Use images that are directly relevant to your onchain data (e.g., token logos, block explorer snapshots) and ensure they are optimized for web display. Relevant and optimized images complement your numerical data without distracting from the analysis.

  • Avoid overloading the dashboard with excessive images to maintain focus on key data insights. Fewer, well‑placed images help preserve the clarity and impact of your dashboard’s analytical content.

Additional Tips

  • Use images strategically to break up sections of data, enhancing overall dashboard readability. Well‑placed images serve as visual separators that guide users through the analytical narrative.

Frame Portlets

Best Use Cases

  • Use as a container to group related portlets or to visually separate different sections of your dashboard. Grouping content logically with frames improves layout organization and helps users focus on specific aspects of the onchain data analysis.

Best Practices

  • Maintain consistency in framing across your dashboard to provide a cohesive visual structure. Uniform framing helps users navigate different sections and reinforces the overall design aesthetic.

Additional Tips

  • Use frames to delineate distinct analytical themes or data sources. Organizing content into clear sections makes complex onchain data easier to digest.
