What it does
“Design the UX of custom-code Databricks Apps (AppKit/React) data screens — KPI/overview pages, reports, charts, tables, and Genie/chat data assistants — mapped to concrete AppKit components. Use when BUILDING or reviewing the UI of an AppKit/React app that displays data or answers data questions: choosing genre, layout, charts, KPIs, semantic color, required states (loading/empty/error), IBCS notation, and AI-result trust (showing generated SQL/sources for Genie/chat). A plain "create a dashboard" request means a managed AI/BI (Lakeview) dashboard → use databricks-aibi-dashboards, NOT this skill. Also NOT for non-data frontend (forms, settings, auth, marketing) or scaffolding/build/deploy (→ databricks-apps). Complements databricks-apps; use it alongside whenever a custom app has a chart, table, KPI, report, or Genie/chat/AI surface.”
Generated summary from the skill's own text
This skill helps design the user experience of custom-code Databricks Apps built with AppKit and React that display data. It guides composition, notation standards, and implementation details to map data screens, KPI pages, reports, charts, tables, and AI chat assistants, to concrete AppKit components that communicate clearly and handle all required states.
When to use it
- Building or reviewing UX for custom AppKit/React apps with data screens
- Designing KPI pages, reports, charts, tables, or Genie chat data surfaces
- Choosing layout, components, and notification patterns for data visualization
- Applying IBCS notation and handling loading, empty, error states
When not to
- Creating managed AI/BI (Lakeview) dashboards instead of custom apps
- Designing non-data frontend like forms, auth, settings, or marketing pages
- Scaffolding, building, or deploying apps without data UX requirements
