Umbraco Dashboard
What is it?
Dashboards are customizable components that appear in Umbraco's backoffice sections to display information and functionality. They show an 'editor' for the selected item in the tree or default section information when no item is selected. Dashboards use conditions to control where and when they appear in the backoffice.
