Get started with LeapView

Use this learning path to go from a new LeapView installation to a validated dashboard change. It keeps setup, the guided lesson, and the underlying project model separate so that each page can serve one purpose well.

Choose your starting point

  • Start with Installation if LeapView is not running yet. It covers both the public image and a source checkout.
  • Continue with Build your first dashboard for the guided learning experience. You will run the sample Sales workspace, trace its resources, change a semantic metric and dashboard note, validate the project, deploy it locally, and verify the result.
  • Read Project structure when you are ready to understand how project-global and workspace-scoped resources fit together.

The first-dashboard tutorial uses a source checkout because the lesson includes editing the repository project. If you only want to evaluate the running product, use the public-image path in the installation guide. Its explicitly disposable synthetic workspace is deployed by evaluation mode; the source-authoring showcase is not pre-deployed in the normal server image.

What you will learn

By the end of the tutorial, you will have practiced the complete local authoring loop:

  1. Establish a known-good sample dashboard.
  2. Trace presentation fields back to their semantic definitions.
  3. Make a small change without breaking stable resource identities.
  4. Validate and review the project plan.
  5. Deploy to the development target and verify interactive behavior.

The tutorial optimizes for a successful first experience. After completing it, use the task-oriented Build dashboards guides for real project work and Reference for exact resource fields, CLI flags, API operations, and visual contracts.
