Overview
Data Runner is a game in which your character searches a library environment for a player-specified metric. When the character finds the specified metric, the metric’s value is added to the player’s score. You can add Data Runner to your Datadog dashboard as a widget.
This extension is made possible by Datadog apps which extends the user-interface with third party content not supported natively. If you are interested in extending your Datadog experience for business or for fun, you can build out an app or game of your own.
For more details about Data Runner, see stuartlangridge/data-runner on GitHub.
