# Dashboard and workspace

> Use the dashboard to start or find projects, then use the workspace to build, review, edit, and publish one project.

The **dashboard** is where you start a project or return to one. Opening a project takes you to its
workspace: the conversation, Preview, code, and tools for building that app.

Your team's **workspace** also holds projects, members, and shared settings. Use the workspace
selector to check which team you are working with before creating a project or inviting someone.

## Start from the dashboard

The dashboard puts the main composer first. Describe the result you want, choose **Build** or
**Plan**, and send the request to create a project.

```text
Build a one-page website for North Slope, a neighborhood coffee roaster.
Include featured beans, wholesale information, opening hours, and contact details.
Use a warm, minimal visual style.
```

Choose **Build** when the request is ready to implement. Choose **Plan** when you want focused
questions and an editable plan before the project changes. Learn more in [Plan mode](/features/plan-mode).

Below the composer, the project tray helps you continue existing work:

* **My projects** shows projects you have already started.
* **Mythos templates** shows ready-made starting points you can remix.
* **Browse all** opens the complete view for the selected collection.

Use **Search** in the sidebar when you know a project name. To change an existing project, open its
card first; the main dashboard composer always starts new work.

## Work inside a project

Opening a project takes you to its workspace. The layout keeps the request and the result visible at
the same time:

* **Conversation on the left:** send requests, follow progress, and review delivered results.
* **Project view on the right:** inspect the current app or switch to another project tool.

Use the project toolbar to move between these views:

| View        | Use it for                                                                             |
| ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Preview** | Test the current delivered app and open it in a separate tab.                          |
| **Code**    | Read or directly edit project files on a desktop browser.                              |
| **Files**   | Preview and download files Mythos generated for the project.                           |
| **Room**    | Discuss the project with teammates when your plan and access allow it.                 |
| **More**    | Open project services and settings, including connected services and publishing tools. |

When a build is running, follow the progress in the conversation. When it delivers, Preview moves to
the new current result. You can then send a focused follow-up without repeating the original brief.

## Review earlier work

Choose **History** in the workspace header to browse earlier project versions. Selecting a version is
read-only: it lets you inspect that result without changing the current project. Use **Revert** only
when you want the earlier version to become the new current version. See
[Version history](/features/version-history).

## Shared instructions and access

Open **More → Settings** for project settings. [Knowledge](/features/knowledge) keeps project facts
and shared conventions available for later requests. [Skills](/features/skills) holds reusable
workflows you can invoke in chat. [People](/features/people-and-permissions) explains workspace
membership and project access.

## Share or publish

Use **Share** to manage access to the project workspace. Use **Publish** when you want the current
delivered app to become a public site. These are separate actions: sharing a workspace does not
publish it, and publishing does not grant workspace access.

> **Note**
>
> The code editor is designed for desktop-sized screens. On a smaller screen,
> continue through the conversation and Preview, then open Code on a desktop
> when you need direct file editing.

## Next step

* [Build your first app](/introduction/getting-started) — follow the complete first-project journey.
* [Building and editing](/features/building-and-editing) — learn the delivery loop.
* [Workspace editor](/features/workspace-editor) — make a precise change directly in a file.
