​
Dashboard Overview

After setting up Alerty, you’ll have access to a comprehensive dashboard that provides insights into your application’s performance:

​
Experience Score

A quick overview of your site’s performance, displayed as a score out of 100. The score is calculated using Web Vitals metrics.

  • A score over 90 is recommended for a good user experience.
  • You can click on “how the Experience Score is calculated” to learn more about the metrics used.

​
Top Improvements by Route

This section identifies which routes need the most attention, helping you prioritize optimizations.

  • Routes are listed with their respective scores.
  • A score of 0 indicates significant room for improvement.

​
Network Requests

Provides a detailed breakdown of API calls and network activity:

  • Domain: The URL of the service being called.
  • Time Spent (minutes): Total time spent on requests to each domain.
  • Requests: Number of requests made to each domain.

This helps you identify which external services or APIs might be impacting your application’s performance.

​
Monitors

Real-time status indicators for critical aspects of your application:

  • App Crashes: Indicates if your application is experiencing crashes.
  • App Performance: Overall performance status of your app.

Each monitor shows an “OK” status when things are running smoothly, and updates every minute.

​
Events

Visualizes event volume over time, allowing you to spot trends and anomalies:

  • The graph shows event frequency over a 12-hour period.
  • You can expand the “Show Event Details” section for more in-depth information.

​
Additional Features

  • View DSN: Easily access your Data Source Name for configuration.
  • Edit Resource: Quickly make changes to your monitored resource settings.

​
Best Practices

  1. Regularly check your Experience Score and work on improving it, especially for scores below 90.
  2. Investigate routes with low scores in the “Top Improvements by Route” section.
  3. Monitor network requests to optimize API calls and reduce time spent on external services.
  4. Set up alerts for the Monitors to be notified immediately of any issues.
  5. Use the Events graph to identify unusual patterns or spikes in activity.
