How to build Charts in Pentaho? using xAction or using CDF?

After lot of struggle and googling finally I have managed to develop one dashboard using Pentaho CDE. While googling I found out that many people use xAction files to create charts and then embed those files in dashboard.

So I would like to know which way is better in terms of maintenance, performance? 1) Using only Pentaho CDE or 2) Creating charts in xAction and then embedding those charts

What do usually people do to develop dashboards?

xActions are pretty much deprecated and are dying a slow painful death. However CDE is new and actively updated technology that is of the moment.

So CDE, all the way.

Perhaps you should blog your experiences - there are other blogs out there about using CDE and it is very easy to get started, so it would be interesting to know your specific troubles.
