What’s the Best Way to Build Dashboards with Rust?
⚓ Rust 📅 2025-08-12 👤 surdeus 👁️ 11Hello
I am working on a project in Rust & would love to display data in a dashboard-like interface something interactive / at least updated periodically.
But Rust does not have obvious “dashboard-first” frameworks like some other languages; so I am trying to figure out what tools / libraries people are actually using. ![]()
I know there are some options like plotters for static graphs, plotly for interactive plotting & even tui-rs (or its actively maintained fork ratatui) for terminal dashboards. ![]()
However; I am not sure which approach works best for real-time updates, web integration / simply making things look neat & functional.
I checked Introduction - Rust and WebAssembly guide related to this and found it quite informative.
Also; while digging into visualization tools, I stumbled on what Is Power BI Dashboard and it got me thinking what if there were similarly powerful, user-friendly dashboards built entirely in Rust or accessible via Rust libraries? ![]()
I would love to hear how others have tackled dashboard needs in Rust projects whether it’s for CLI, web, desktop / WoA contexts. ![]()
Thank you !! ![]()
