Description

This PR updates the default dashboard configuration to provide a more comprehensive and informative initial experience for new users.

The previous default had 3 widgets; the new configuration includes 7 widgets, offering a broader overview of financial health and better guidance.

Key changes include:

  • Expanded Layout: Increased from 3 to 7 widgets.
  • Key Metrics: Added "Monthly Income" and "Monthly Expenses" summary cards.
  • Visual Patterns: Included a "Calendar" card to visualize daily transaction activity.
  • User Guidance: Added a "Welcome" markdown card with explanations for each widget and tips.
  • Optimized Placement: Adjusted the layout of existing Net Worth, Cash Flow, and Spending cards for a balanced grid.
