I am seeking some code design related information. I have created a Kibana like dashboard with Splunk as backend, but very application-specific in terms of D3 based visualizations which has highly interactive maps. I found kibana after writing my front-end. I am impressed with the modularized & organized UI dashboard of Kibana which I wish my web App also has. I want to workout middle way in which I can add my directives in kibana. I did not find any documentation for development with Kibana. Can someone share their experience of extending kibana with new directives? Are there any guidelines on such kind of integration? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

I'm also looking to add a directive for a custom Kibana widget. Have you learned anything about doing this? ---
