I am running SigNoz locally via Docker on macOS.  Simple question, I hope, but why doesn't `Metrics` appear as an option on the left nav?  :thread:

Hi, there is no metrics explorer in the product yet. We are working on it.

I was reading this set of documentation, which led me to try and send metrics to my local instance of SigNoz:

<https://signoz.io/opentelemetry/python-custom-metrics/#step-6-see-your-metrics-in-signoz>

Does this mean the Alerts feature that can be built off Metrics, and things like adding a panel with a Metric to a dashboard aren't available yet?

No, you can create metric-based alerts and dashboard panels. It's just the metric explorer is not available at the moment.
