Visual Design Principles
/* Traffic light colors for status */

.metric-warning { color: #f59e0b; } /* Amber */
.metric-bad { color: #ef4444; } /* Red */
/* Visual hierarchy */
.metric-primary {
font-size: 2.5rem;
font-weight: 700;
}
.metric-secondary {
font-size: 1.5rem;
font-weight: 500;
}
Chart Selection
| Data Type | Chart |
|---|---|
| Trend over time | Line chart |
