jamey 65e646a7eb add analytics v2 plan, demo seed data, and improved funnel display
- analytics-v2 plan with prioritised improvements (comparison mode, filtering, CSV export, entry/exit pages)
- seed script generating ~35k realistic events over 12 months (weighted traffic, referrers, devices, e-commerce funnel)
- funnel chart now shows overall conversion rate from product views instead of step-to-step percentages
- summary line with overall conversion rate and revenue

# Analytics dashboard v2
Status: Planned
## Current state (v1)
- Unique visitors, pageviews, bounce rate, visit duration
- SVG bar chart for visitor trends
- Date range picker (Today, 7d, 30d, 12m)
- Top pages, sources/referrers, countries, devices
- E-commerce conversion funnel (product view → cart → checkout → purchase)
- Data collection: UTMs, referrers, browser, OS, screen size, full e-commerce funnel
## Improvements (priority order)
### 1. Comparison mode
Compare current period vs previous period. Show deltas on each metric (↑12%, ↓3%). Already have date ranges — just query the previous period in parallel and render the difference. Low effort, high value.
**Files:** `lib/berrypod/analytics.ex` (queries), `lib/berrypod_web/live/admin/analytics.ex` (UI)
### 2. Dashboard filtering
Click any referrer, country, device, or page to filter the whole dashboard by that dimension. Turns a reporting page into an exploration tool. Single most useful feature for understanding traffic.
**Approach:** Add filter params to the URL (e.g. `?country=GB&source=twitter.com`), thread them through all queries. Render active filters as dismissible chips.
**Files:** analytics context (all query functions), analytics LiveView (params, UI)
### 3. CSV export
Export current dashboard view (respecting date range and filters) as CSV. Dead simple, always requested.
**Approach:** Add a download button per panel (or one global export). Use a regular controller route that streams CSV.
**Files:** new controller or plug for CSV response, analytics context for raw data queries
### 4. Entry/exit pages
Which pages people land on and leave from. Data likely already exists (first and last pageview per session). Just needs the query and a UI panel.
**Files:** analytics context (new queries), analytics LiveView (new panel)
## Future (lower priority)
- **Real-time dashboard** — live visitor count, active pages (needs PubSub or polling)
- **Line charts** — proper time-series with date axes (replace bar chart)
- **UTM drill-downs** — campaign/medium/source breakdown views
- **Goals/custom events** — user-defined conversion tracking
- **Stats API** — JSON API for embedding elsewhere
