When you log in to Cloud V, you will be greeted with a dashboard.

Appearance

Dashboard

The dashboard is where you can access every project you are involved with on the platform: the ones that you created, the ones your collaborators have shared with you and the projects you follow.

1 - Side Panel

The side panel shows your profile picture, username and allows you to change which repositories are currently displayed in the project pane. The default, "Repositories", shows repositories owned by you.

Repositories

The default option. Shows repositories you currently own.

Shared

Shows repositories shared with you by other users.

Watching

Shows repositories by other users you've watched.

2 - Project Panel

Shows a matrix of repository cards that match your level of involvement as picked in the side panel.

Project Cards

A project card displays a repository's name, description, status, and has buttons to interact with the repository.

If a lock can be seen, this indicates that the repository is private. Only people who you have shared this repository with will be able to access this repository. The repository will also not appear in searches.

2.2 - Browse

Allows you to browse a repository, which is going to display its README file and gives you options to interact with the project that are not on the card, including the ability to watch a project, browse the source files out of a workspace, and, if you have write access, change the name, change whether it is private or public, add contributors, et cetera.

Allows you to create a direct clone of a repository. You can use this to fork your own or someone else's repository, which can be useful if you would like to work on a project but do not have access to it.

2.4 - Download

Downloads a zip file containing the repository's files.

2.5 - Workspace.

Takes you to the workspace for this repository if you have access to it.
