Hosting your Power BI dashboards on GitHub not only showcases your work but also demonstrates professionalism, documentation skills, and version control awareness, essential for roles you want to target.
Create a Git Public Repository with appropriate title and description as per your project. Add below files and or folders to your repository and publish it.
- ReadME file
Acts as the landing page—describe the problem, insights, tools used, and how to open/use the .pbix. - Dashboard File
The Power BI dashboard project file. - Data Folder
If data is public or synthetic, include it under a data/ folder. If not, describe the dataset origin in the README. - Preview images Folder
A snapshot of the dashboard increases engagement and is great for GitHub/social previews. - Insights Doc
A short document summarizing key findings, e.g., “Sales dipped 20% in Q3 due to X." - PDF Report
(Optional but great!) Add a PDF version of the dashboard for quick viewing. - Scripts Folder
(Optional but great!) Shows how you cleaned/processed data. - GitHub Topics/Tags
(Optional but great!) Use tags like PowerBI, data-visualization, dashboard for discoverability. - Video Walkthrough
(Optional but great!) Record a Loom or YouTube video explaining the dashboard. The link can be found in README.
