Idea:
Introduce a new set of shapes, templates, and components specifically designed for wireframing dashboards and reports, including—but not limited to—Power BI. These could include placeholders for charts, filters, KPIs, navigation elements, and typical layout structures used in business intelligence tools.

Need:
This addition would significantly accelerate the ideation and validation process for BI dashboards, enabling teams to rapidly prototype layouts, align on key metrics/KPIs, and collaborate early in the design process. It helps bridge the gap between business requirements and technical implementation by allowing stakeholders to visualize reporting needs before development begins.

Target Audience:
Business Analysts, Product Managers, Data Engineers, and UI/UX Designers involved in business intelligence and data visualization projects.

Just came across this when searching to see if it existed yet 😅 I’d love to see this. I’m working to implement a data analytics team at my company and often, we encourage people to do rough wireframes so they can get a better handle on how their data should be displayed before building it in Power BI. The UI widgets currently included in Lucid are okay, but it would be even better if they had ones that aligned with default Power BI and Excel visualizations, at least the default ones.

A template as described would be really helpful in reducing time to developed data products!
