ModeratorHi Daniel,
1. Yes, root privileges are not required to run Dashboard Builder. All you need is a standard user right with read/write permissions for the folder and subfolders in your own directory.
2. You cannot change the color of the pie chart because these charts are based on your data and not x and y axes. However, you can change the color of other graphs such as bars, lines, areas, etc.ModeratorYes, you can connect to the MS SQL Server database. You need to enable PDO_SQLSRV on the hosting server and give remote access of your MS SQL server to the host where you have installed the DashbaordBuidler to connect to the SQL Server.

ModeratorThe Dashboard Builder generates an external PHP code and class, which can be used on the Laravel framework as well. For more details, take a look at this documentation on how to use external PHP class on the Laravel framework at https://laraveldaily.com/how-to-use-external-classes-and-php-files-in-laravel-controller here
