QUICK START (3 steps):

1️⃣  PREPARE
    mkdir -p docs/source/tutorials/images/dashboard
    
    Run your simulation with dashboard=True:
    simpm.run(env, dashboard=True)

2️⃣  CAPTURE
    Take 15 screenshots following SCREENSHOT_IMPLEMENTATION_CHECKLIST.md
    Save as:
    docs/source/tutorials/images/dashboard/01-overview.png
    docs/source/tutorials/images/dashboard/02-simulation-runs-table.png
    ... etc

3️⃣  DOCUMENT
    For each image, add to dashboard-guide.rst:
    
    .. image:: images/dashboard/01-overview.png
       :alt: Dashboard overview showing environment and run selector
       :width: 90%

    See DASHBOARD_SCREENSHOTS_GUIDE.txt for exact locations.

4️⃣  BUILD & VERIFY
    cd docs
    make html
    open _build/html/tutorials/dashboard-guide.html

╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

Option 1: Add Screenshots Now (Recommended)
   → Follow SCREENSHOT_IMPLEMENTATION_CHECKLIST.md
   → Takes ~30-45 minutes to capture and integrate
   → Results in complete visual documentation

Option 2: Keep Text Documentation As-Is
   → Documentation is already comprehensive and complete
   → Screenshots can be added anytime later
   → Users can still learn effectively from text + examples

Option 3: Partial Screenshots
   → Add just the key views (Entities, Resources, Activity)
   → Skip optional sections (Entity Status Log)
   → Faster implementation (~20 minutes)
