best practice for setting up monitoring dashboard for sqs queues

Question

How to set up a monitoring dashboard for sqs queues as well as the publisher and consumer applications? There are limited info for each queue in the "monitor" section, but we are looking for a comprehensive dashboard that can show the most significant queues and publisher/consumer apps all at once. Wonder if there is any resource/documentation/sample to reference to.

You can take advantage of [Cloudwatch dashboards](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/CloudWatch_Dashboards.html) where you can create customized views of the [metrics](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSSimpleQueueService/latest/SQSDeveloperGuide/sqs-available-cloudwatch-metrics.html) for your SQS queues or other AWS resources.
