Admin Dashboard
Analytics, protected routes, and data tables that scale.
An admin dashboard that handles the unglamorous parts well — paginated tables over millions of rows, real role-based access, audit logs, and charts that don't crash on big datasets.
What you'll build
- Auth with role-based access
- Sortable, filterable, paginated data tables
- Charts for KPIs and trends
- Search across resources
- Audit log of admin actions
- Bulk actions with confirmations
What you'll learn
- Design a table that handles real data volumes
- Apply RBAC without sprinkling checks everywhere
- Wire charts to live data without the page choking
- Capture an audit trail without slowing writes
