│  ├─ Navbar.jsx
│  └─ CardStats.jsx
├─ pages/            # halaman dashboard
│  └─ Dashboard.jsx
├─ theme/            # tema Material-UI

🧩 Membuat Layout Dashboard

1. Sidebar

import React from 'react';
import { Drawer, List, ListItem, ListItemIcon, ListItemText } from '@mui/material';
import DashboardIcon from '@mui/icons-material/Dashboard';

export default function Sidebar() {
  return (
    <Drawer variant="permanent">
      <List>
        <ListItem button>
          <ListItemIcon><DashboardIcon /></ListItemIcon>
          <ListItemText primary="Dashboard" />
        </ListItem>
      </List>
    </Drawer>
  );
}

2. Navbar

import React from 'react';
import { AppBar, Toolbar, Typography } from '@mui/material';

export default function Navbar() {
  return (
    <AppBar position="fixed">
      <Toolbar>
        <Typography variant="h6">Admin Dashboard</Typography>
      </Toolbar>
    </AppBar>
  );
}

3. Dashboard Page

import React from 'react';
import Sidebar from '../components/Sidebar';
import Navbar from '../components/Navbar';
import { Box } from '@mui/material';
import CardStats from '../components/CardStats';

export default function Dashboard() {
  return (
    <Box sx={{ display: 'flex' }}>
      <Navbar />
      <Sidebar />
      <Box component="main" sx={{ flexGrow: 1, p: 3 }}>
        <CardStats title="Users" value={120} />
        <CardStats title="Orders" value={45} />
      </Box>
    </Box>
  );
}

4. Card Stats Component

import React from 'react';
import { Card, CardContent, Typography } from '@mui/material';

export default function CardStats({ title, value }) {
  return (
    <Card sx={{ minWidth: 200, margin: 2 }}>
      <CardContent>
        <Typography color="textSecondary">{title}</Typography>
        <Typography variant="h5">{value}</Typography>
      </CardContent>
    </Card>
  );
}

⚡ Integrasi Data & API

• Gunakan Axios untuk fetch data RESTful API

import axios from 'axios';
import { useEffect, useState } from 'react';

const [users, setUsers] = useState([]);

useEffect(() => {
  axios.get('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users')
    .then(res => setUsers(res.data))
    .catch(err => console.error(err));
}, []);

• Bind data ke CardStats atau Table component

---

🧠 Responsive & Theming

1. Theme Customization

import { createTheme, ThemeProvider } from '@mui/material/styles';

const theme = createTheme({
  palette: {
    primary: { main: '#1976d2' },
    secondary: { main: '#ff4081' },
  },
});

export default theme;

• Wrap App dengan ThemeProvider

import { ThemeProvider } from '@mui/material/styles';
import theme from './theme/theme';

<ThemeProvider theme={theme}>
  <App />
</ThemeProvider>

2. Responsiveness

• Material-UI Grid → layout otomatis menyesuaikan layar

import { Grid } from '@mui/material';

<Grid container spacing={2}>
  <Grid item xs={12} sm={6}><CardStats /></Grid>
  <Grid item xs={12} sm={6}><CardStats /></Grid>
</Grid>

🧩 Best Practices Dashboard Admin

1. Komponen Reusable

   • CardStats, Table, Chart → gunakan di semua page

2. State Management

   • Gunakan React Context atau Redux → share state global

3. Lazy Loading & Code Splitting

   • Halaman besar → gunakan React.lazy + Suspense

4. Consistent Styling

   • Gunakan MUI Theme → warna & typography konsisten

5. Performance

   • Memoize komponen → React.memo

   • Optimasi table & chart → virtualized list jika banyak data

🧭 Contoh Fitur Dashboard Lanjutan

• Chart & Analytics

  • Gunakan recharts atau chart.js → visualisasi data

• User Management

  • CRUD users → integrasi RESTful API

• Notifications & Alerts

  • Snackbar / toast untuk feedback user
