# Lightning Dashboards Configuration

Lightning dashboards provide a flexible way to visualize your data. By default, dashboards include standard components such as charts, tables, and gauges. However, you can extend their capabilities by adding custom Lightning Web Components (LWC).

You can add custom LWCs such as Kanban boards, heatmaps, and other interactive visualizations to explore, filter, and act on data directly within the dashboard.
