Building a dashboard with Netlify? Let us review it.
Expert code review for dashboards built with Netlify. We fix Netlify-specific security gaps, optimize performance, and handle deployment. From $19.
Common Netlify issues we find
Real problems from Netlify codebases we've reviewed.
Missing redirect rules for SPAs
Single-page apps without a _redirects file or netlify.toml rewrite rules, causing 404 errors when users navigate directly to routes.
Environment variable misconfiguration
Build-time vs runtime environment variable confusion, or sensitive keys set in the wrong context (deploy previews, branch deploys).
Serverless function cold starts
Netlify Functions with large dependencies or no connection pooling, causing timeout errors on the first invocation after idle periods.
Missing build optimization
No caching configured for node_modules or build artifacts, causing unnecessarily long build times and deployment delays.
Dashboard challenges to solve
Key dashboard concerns that AI-generated code often misses.
Query performance at scale
AI-generated dashboards run raw database queries on every page load. With thousands of rows, these queries take seconds or minutes instead of milliseconds. You need materialized views, pre-aggregated data, proper indexing, and caching to keep dashboards responsive.
Data accuracy
A dashboard that shows wrong numbers is worse than no dashboard at all. AI tools generate SQL aggregations that look correct but miss edge cases — timezone handling, duplicate records, null values, and off-by-one errors in date ranges produce silently incorrect metrics.
Access control and data exposure
Dashboards display sensitive business data. AI tools often skip role-based access, meaning anyone with the URL can see revenue figures, customer data, or operational metrics. Different team members need different data visibility levels.
Real-time vs. cached data
Some metrics need to be live (active users, system status), while others can be cached (monthly revenue, historical trends). AI tools either make everything real-time (slow, expensive) or everything static (stale). You need a thoughtful caching strategy.
What we check
Key areas we review for Netlify dashboard projects.
Query performance — response times under 500ms for all dashboard views
Data accuracy — aggregation logic, timezone handling, null values
Access control — role-based permissions enforced on API and database level
Caching strategy — appropriate refresh intervals for each metric type

Frequently asked questions
Can you review a dashboard built with Netlify?
Yes. We regularly audit Netlify dashboard projects and understand the specific patterns and pitfalls of this combination. Our review covers security, performance, and deployment readiness.
What issues do you find in Netlify dashboards?
Common issues include missing redirect rules for spas and environment variable misconfiguration on the Netlify side, combined with dashboard-specific concerns like query performance at scale and data accuracy. We check for all of these and more.
How do I make my Netlify dashboard production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a prioritized list of issues. For Netlify dashboard projects, the typical path is: fix security gaps, address dashboard-specific requirements, optimize Netlify performance, then configure deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
