What is swe-dashboard?

swe-dashboard is a self-hosted tool for software engineering teams to track key metrics from their GitLab or GitHub repositories. It pulls merge request and pull request data, calculates metrics like cycle time, time to review, time to merge, defect rates, and contributor activity, then exports them to VictoriaMetrics for visualization in Grafana. The project provides pre-built Grafana dashboards for metrics overview, repository-level views, cycle times, and team performance. It can be deployed via Docker, Docker Compose, binary download, or as a systemd service. The software is in early beta (v0.10-beta) with GitHub support noted as implemented but not tested.
