Design Pass for DPUL Success Dashboard

[sdellis]

Blocked by #14

Acceptance Criteria

Wireframe a dashboard page that allows users to determine how successful we are based on a number of metrics that we are getting from Plausible.

Users should be able to determine success over a given date range for the following:

• Traffic (Basic Site traffic metrics from Plausible)
• Engagement (Aggregate totals for Record Page Views, UV Clicks, and Downloads)
• Sources (Pie graph of top referrers for the given date range)

For each of the above metrics, we should allow for a drill down on data. For example:

• Traffic can default to "Visitors" but allow a user to decide which metric they want to view on the line chart.
• Engagement would be a tally of "engagement metrics" but one could drill down on the individual data in a line chart.
• Sources could show the top 10 in the pie chart, but could allow for a longer list of all the data.

We can also supply a table of data at the bottom of the page. The graphs should be given priority at the top of the page.

Success Criteria

• [ ] Users should be able to determine how well we did towards traffic and engagement goals for a given time period.

Mockup 1 for Success Dashboard

Mockup 2 for Success Dashboard

• After getting feedback from Trey, we changed the Source section of the mockup to display a line chart instead of a bar graph.
• The "Source Diversity" section was also modified to reflect this change, being renamed "Sources" and displaying an aggregate number instead of a percentage.

Mockup will continue to be modified as needed to give us the most utility out of the DPUL Success Dashboard #14 which we are implementing.

I don't totally understand what the 11% and 20% aggregates would tell me, and since they're so big I think I'd give them a lot of mental weight. I wonder if instead of trying to combine those metrics we had their own separate rows, with a little up or down arrow and red/green that indicated "Up 10%" or what have you.

Like if Downloads goes down by 30, and Viewer Clicks goes down 100, but RPV goes up 3000, I don't think those things are all connected to the same goals, so I'd want to reflect on those individually if that makes sense? Otherwise I'd see a big green box that was like UP A MILLION PERCENT and be like job done :+1:, but our goal of enabling transformative use may have gone down.

Also I think "Visitors" isn't in https://github.com/pulibrary/dpul-collections/issues/14, so I wonder if we can take it out. I know it's like...the easy one, but we heard from our stakeholders that it's not really popularity that means success.
