The decision was made to include Dashboards inside Desktop 2.0. The functionality will be 95% identical (everything except sharing). Does it make sense to have one docs portal for both? In that case we should call it "Neo4j Dashboards" instead of "Neo4j Aura Dashboards" I think.

hm... i wonder if it should be part of the aura docs then (probably yes, because UPX and aura first? @fiquick @AlexicaWright )
there's also the desktop docs here:

Desktop 2.0 will get their own docs shortly. However, the current Desktop docs don't include anything but links to its Graph Apps. Desktop 2 docs will follow the same example, which is to say that yes, Aura first.

Thanks @rsill-neo4j @AlexicaWright ! Good to know.
Regardless I think the name :Neo4j Aura Dashboards" doesn't fit very well. I'd rather stick with the official name "Neo4j Dashboards".

The way we make examples datasets available for people will change with the new PLG initiative, it will likely just be a button from the developer home. I'm wondering whether we should write the docs to use the new easy samples when available.

Added some comments. Since there's a lot we can ignore for the internal preview, I suggest we hide the sections from the navbar and do not link to them (yet).
We can still leave the files as a structural template, but make sure people can't find them. When we go public we should make sure they are also not indexed by search engines.

| == Aura dashboards vs NeoDash commercial |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
I don't think we should position NeoDash commercial here.
For our Aura users the new Dashboards app will be the suggested experience, so introducing NeoDash could be confusing.
| link:https://neo4j.com/docs/neodash-commercial/[NeoDash commercial] is Neo4j's standalone dashboard solution. | ||
| By contrast, Neo4j Aura dashboards is a part of the unified Aura console experience and lets you work with dashboards directly in Aura without application switch. | ||

| == Aura dashboards vs Bloom |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
While I think explaining the differences between Bloom makes sense I wouldn't put this on the main page. Same goes for the BI connector.
I'd either put this inside 'Integrations' or create another page for it.

This will probably not happen until later this year, we can leave this out for Q1.

We can remove rule-based styling sections for each chart, this will come later in the year.

The entirety of the 'Working with Dashboards' section is out of scope for the internal preview, except for 'Managing dashboards'.
