Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Debugging workflows steps is hard. Specially when we want to know what steps are taking long time or failing.

Describe the solution you'd like Create a workflow run detailed view, where we could see what step started at what time, and how long it took to complete. Inngest.js example below:

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context I can take care of this as a first contribution. I am not sure the cli / backend can provide the necessary information already. If it can't I will also need to implement this.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the current API endpoints for workflow execution to see if step level timing data (start time, duration) is exposed. If not, identify where to add it in the backend. Then design a UI component for the detailed view on the dashboard.
