# Build a data-intensive dashboard (that actually works)


- **Date:** Wednesday, Jul 8, 2026
- **Time:** 16:00–18:00 (120 min)
- **Room:** Room M6 (40 Seats)
- **Event:** World Congress 2026 Europe

## Description

In this hands-on workshop, you'll build a data-intensive dashboard using AI-assisted development, and stress-test it against real requirements: large datasets, cross-filtering, and the kind of complex interactions that matter in production.

We'll explore what different approaches get right and where they struggle, with a focus on practical decisions you can take back to your own projects.

You'll leave with a working app and a forked repo with checkpoints to reference later.
