JEDI's Gauge Chart: Visualize Metrics with Impact

A Gauge Chart is a single-metric visualization used to display the current value of a metric within a defined range. It provides an intuitive, dial-style representation that makes it easy to understand the status of a metric at a glance.

Gauge charts are especially useful for monitoring key performance indicators (KPIs) and values that have clear minimum, maximum, and threshold boundaries.
