The Pangolin Management UI is a professional, high-performance web interface designed to provide total visibility and control over your data lakehouse.
Pangolin features a modern, clean aesthetic tailored for data engineers and administrators.
- Dark/Light Mode: Toggle between themes using the icon in the top header. The UI defaults based on your system preference.
- Glassmorphism: Subtle transparency and backdrop blurs are used for modals and sidebars to maintain context.
- Responsive Design: The sidebar collapses on smaller screens to maximize the data viewing area.
The interface is divided into three main zones:
Your primary navigation hub. It dynamically updates based on your User Role:
- Root: System-wide management (Tenants, System Settings).
- Admin: Tenant resources (Users, Catalogs, Warehouses).
- User: Data focused (Explorer, Discovery).
Provides constant access to:
- Global Search: Instantly find assets (Tables, Views, Namespaces) across all catalogs with type-ahead suggestions.
- Notifications: Toast alerts for operation statuses (e.g., "Table Created Successfully").
- User Profile: Access to your tokens, settings, and logout.
- Theme Toggle: Switch between light and dark modes.
The main area where you interact with data, forms, and logs.
Accessible only to system owners. Provides high-level metrics on system health.
- Stats Cards: Total Tenants, Warehouses, Catalogs, Namespaces, and Tables across the platform.
The home screen for most users. Displays recent activity and resource usage.
- Resource Stats: Real-time counts of Catalogs, Warehouses, Namespaces, and Tables within your tenant.
- Toasts: Non-intrusive popups in the top right confirm successful actions or explain errors.
- Modals: Used for focused tasks like creating a new branch or inviting a user.
- Optimistic UI: Many actions (like renaming a catalog) update the UI immediately while the backend completes the task, providing a snappy experience.
