What is Gauges, Cards, & KPIs?
Gauges, cards, and KPI visuals display a single value prominently, often compared against a target or goal. Cards show one number plainly, gauges represent it on a dial with a target marker, and KPI visuals combine a value, trend, and goal into one compact visual. These are common on dashboards meant to give an at-a-glance status check.
