Tabs for dashboard

[powerburner-nl]

NetBox version

4.0.2

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

It would be great to have the ability to have more than 1 dashboard, or like a browser tab functionality so you can have 1 dashboard for firmware updates (RSS feeds), 1 for security news, 1 for netbox lists etc. etc.

Use case

This helps declutter all the widgets and you would need less scrolling down, better overview of things.

Thanks for your interest in helping improve NetBox.

While your proposed feature sounds appealing, we need a more expansive description of how you imagine the functionality operating (Proposed functinoality) and how you imagine two or three users with different work functions might use it (Use case). For example, are the tabs global or per user? Would the same widget potentially need to have appearances in multiple tabs?

If you're not ready to dig into the proposal at this kind of depth, we can convert your issue to a discussion to enable crowdsourced expansion on the basic theme.

Since the dashboards are individual now, I think the multiple dashboards (or tabs for the dashboard) should also be individual.
This way users can set it up to their preference. A feature that would be nice is if you can add sources for all users to choose from, just like they can add a netbox object list now.
For example, you globally add an RSS widget and then users can choose to put it on their dashboard.

This proposal still feels short of an actionable work unit, so I'm converting it to a discussion. Please use the broader audience to vet it for feasibility and refine its current rather broad scope into a narrower vision, then make a new FR issue incorporating those refinements.
