Thank you everyone for the feedback!<br>
<br>
As a follow-up to everyone, the suggested solutions were:<br>
Apache Superset: <a href="https://superset.incubator.apache.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://superset.incubator.apache.org</a><br>
Freeboard: <a href="https://freeboard.io" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://freeboard.io</a><br>
Grafana: <a href="https://grafana.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://grafana.com</a><br>
Netdata: <a href="https://www.netdata.cloud/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.netdata.cloud/</a><br>
Redash: <a href="https://redash.io" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://redash.io</a> (recently bought by Databricks, but there is<br>
an open source version)<br>
Smashing: <a href="https://github.com/Smashing/smashing" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/Smashing/smashing</a><br>
<br>
Looking at them tall, I'm going to start looking at Apache Superset<br>
unless someone tells me that this would be a mistake...<br>
<br>
Thanks again for the collective wisdom :)<br>
