Chapter 3. Customizing the Cryostat dashboard
The Cryostat Dashboard displays information about target Java Virtual Machines (JVMs) in the form of cards on the user interface. You can configure the cards and customize different dashboard layouts according to your requirements.
3.1. Creating a custom dashboard layout
Create customized layouts to organize the display of dashboard cards, according to your requirements. You can organize the cards in different configurations and create custom views to display the data and specific metrics that are most relevant to your current requirements.
You can add, remove, and arrange the cards and switch between different layouts. You can also create layout templates that you can download, reuse, or share with other users so that they can access the same information and metrics. By using dashboard layouts, you do not need to modify your dashboard manually each time you want to view different information.

- Logged in to your Cryostat web console.
- Created a target JVM to monitor.
Procedure
- On the Cryostat web console, click Dashboard.
- On the toolbar, click the layout selector dropdown menu.
Click New Layout.
