-A [k6 extension](https://k6.io/docs/extensions/) that enables creating a web based metrics dashboard for [k6](https://k6.io).
-
-By using the **xk6-dashboard** output extension you can access metrics from [k6](https://k6.io) process via [server-sent events (SSE)](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Server-sent_events/Using_server-sent_events). All custom [k6](https://k6.io) metrics ([Counter](https://k6.io/docs/javascript-api/k6-metrics/counter/), [Gauge](https://k6.io/docs/javascript-api/k6-metrics/gauge/), [Rate](https://k6.io/docs/javascript-api/k6-metrics/rate/), [Trend](https://k6.io/docs/javascript-api/k6-metrics/trend/)) and [built-in metrics](https://k6.io/docs/using-k6/metrics/#built-in-metrics) are accessible in the event stream.
+A [k6 extension](https://k6.io/docs/extensions/) that that makes [k6](https://k6.io) metrics available on a web-based dashboard. The dashboard is updated continuously during the test run using [server-sent events (SSE)](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Server-sent_events/Using_server-sent_events).
 
 The test run report can be exported to a responsive self-contained HTML file, which can be displayed even without an Internet connection.

-> You are currently looking at the documentation of the next version on the master branch, which does not correspond in all respects to the operation of the last release. Select the tag corresponding to the release for more precise documentation.
