Forecast ​

A demand forecast screen based on the Mise concept (https://x.com/nizamdesign/status/2106846318174114267): a headline cover count with change and confidence range, lunch, dinner and peak cards, a dot chart where each dot is one cover, a "What is driving it" list that adds up to the forecast, and demand change cards per dish. Themed for Lumen. Click a driver to switch it off and watch the forecast, range and dots update. Dots and cards animate in with Motion and stay still with reduced motion. Fictitious data.
