What

Is A
Wireframe?
A wireframe is a simple visual
guide for a Power BI dashboard.

It's a basic plan that shows where

different parts of the dashboard
will be, what features it will have,
and how users might use it.

Wireframes are usually barebones

sketches without color or fancy
designs.
Goals and objectives aren't written
down in a wireframe, but they
should be clear from the layout.

Before you start making a

wireframe, you should already
know what you want the
dashboard to do.
The title and navigation menu of
the dashboard are key.

They give users a quick idea of

what the dashboard is about and
how to get around.

Choosing the right words for these

parts is important.

The layout also helps guide users

through the information in a
structured way.
A basic wireframe is just a rough
sketch showing the main parts of
the dashboard.

It should give a high-level view of

the dashboard's focus and how it
breaks down the data.
The size of each part can also show
how important it is.
Why Wireframes are
Important

Creating a good wireframe is a

crucial first step in designing a
Power BI dashboard.

It's a way to visually express your

ideas, which is often easier to
understand than a spoken
explanation.

A well-made wireframe can help

people see how different parts of
the dashboard relate to each
other.
But to make a good wireframe,
you need to keep it clear and
straightforward.

It's best to use simple shapes and

avoid using color.

This helps keep the focus on the

layout and content.
The wireframe serves as a shared
reference point for everyone
involved in the project.

It's a visual guide that shows what

the finished dashboard should
look like.

By doing this, it helps different

teams work together more
effectively.
Labeling is more important than
creating detailed designs in a
wireframe. It tells everyone what
to expect and what's important.

At the end of the day, a wireframe

is a tool for communication and
collaboration. It helps keep
everyone focused on the same
goal.
There are many tools you can use
to create wireframes. Some of the
popular ones include:
PowerPoint
Figma
LucidChart
And many others…
