🛠️ Creating an Analytics Dashboard for DEV.to using Node.js and Chart.js.

Hello folks! 👋

At the moment, I’m developing a custom analytics dashboard for DEV.to and using Node.js for backend purposes. Also, I'm employing Chart.js for visual data representation. The goal is to pull article stats (views, reactions, comments, etc.) through the DEV.to API and showcase them in aesthetically pleasing interactive windows.

I intend to add the following capabilities:

• Article performance over time

• Most engaging posts

• Visual comparison of metrics (views, likes, comments)

• Author stats (if working in a team or group blog)

And I’m wondering the following:

• Is anyone here familiar with building anything like this?

• What metrics do you consider most valuable when monitoring your DEV.to engagement?

• Any recommendations on API limitations and performance, as well as UX/UI design?

I’m glad to provide my code at various stages of completion and am always open to joint effort! 🚀
