Dashboard

The dashboard is the landing page of your architecture catalog. It provides a high-level overview of your entire architecture model.

What you see

Stats bar

Four metric cards at the top:

Metric	Description
Total Entities	Count of all registered architecture elements
Domains	Number of auto-discovered domains
Diagrams	Count of diagrams (PlantUML, BPMN, draw.io)
Pages	Total generated static pages

Domain cards

Each domain gets a card showing:

• Domain name with a color-coded left border
• Element count per type (revealed on hover)
• Quick links to the domain overview, context map, event flow, and heatmap

Domain colors are auto-assigned from the domain_color_palette in your mapping YAML. Domains are sorted by element count (largest first).

Layer distribution

Below the domain cards, a summary shows how elements are distributed across your architecture layers (Business, Organization, Application, Technology — or whatever layers you define).

Branding

The dashboard header shows your company name and catalog name, configured in registry-mapping.yaml:

site:
  company: Nova CRM              # main heading
  name: Architecture Catalog     # subtitle
  logo_text: N                   # sidebar icon

See Site Branding for the full reference.

Dark mode

The catalog defaults to dark mode with a toggle button in the sidebar icon bar. Theme preference is saved to localStorage and persists across sessions. The toggle also respects the system’s prefers-color-scheme setting on first visit.
