Continue + Dashboard

Built a dashboard with Continue?
We'll make it production-ready.

Dashboards aggregate and display your most important business data — revenue metrics, user analytics, operational KPIs. They need to load fast, display accurate numbers, and restrict access to authorized users. AI tools build visually impressive charts quickly, but the underlying data queries are often slow, insecure, or return incorrect aggregations.

Dashboard challenges in Continue apps

Building a dashboard with Continue is a great start — but these challenges need attention before launch.

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.

Chart and visualization bugs

AI-generated charts often have subtle issues — wrong axis scales, misleading truncated Y-axes, color schemes that are indistinguishable for colorblind users, and tooltips that show raw data instead of formatted values. These issues erode trust in the data.

Filter and drill-down interactions

Users need to filter by date range, segment, region, or other dimensions and drill into the details behind any number. AI tools build static charts but not the interactive filtering and drill-down that makes dashboards actually useful for decision-making.

Export and reporting

Stakeholders need to export data to CSV, generate PDF reports, or schedule automated email summaries. AI tools rarely implement data export, and when they do, the output format often breaks in Excel or includes raw technical field names.

What we check in your Continue dashboard

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
Visualization correctness — accurate axes, accessible color schemes
Filter functionality — date ranges, segments, and drill-down interactions
Export capability — CSV, PDF, and scheduled reports
Mobile responsiveness — usable dashboard layout on tablets and phones
Error states — clear messages when data is unavailable or queries fail
Database load — queries don't impact production application performance

Common Continue issues we fix

Beyond dashboard-specific issues, these are Continue patterns we commonly fix.

highSecurity

Model-dependent security quality

Security of generated code varies dramatically based on which LLM is connected. Some models produce much less secure code than others.

mediumCode Quality

Inconsistent code patterns between models

Switching between models mid-project produces inconsistent patterns, naming conventions, and error handling approaches in the same codebase.

mediumBugs

Context window limitations causing bugs

When the codebase exceeds the model's context window, Continue loses awareness of existing patterns and introduces contradictory code.

mediumPerformance

Missing performance best practices

Generated code often uses naive algorithms and data structures. Database queries, API calls, and data processing lack optimization.

Frequently asked questions

Can I build a dashboard with Continue?

Continue is a great starting point for a dashboard. It handles the initial scaffolding well, but dashboards have specific requirements — query performance at scale and data accuracy — that need professional attention before launch.

What issues does Continue leave in dashboards?

Common issues include: model-dependent security quality, inconsistent code patterns between models, context window limitations causing bugs. For a dashboard specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for query performance at scale.

How do I make my Continue dashboard production-ready?

Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most Continue-built dashboards, the critical path is: security review, then fixing core flow reliability, then deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.

How much does it cost to fix a Continue-built dashboard?

Our code audit is $19 and gives you a complete report of issues. Fixes start at $199 with our Fix & Ship plan. For larger dashboard projects, we provide a custom fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing.
