## [Workspace Dashboard Folders, Pinning & Better Organization](/content/changelog/workspace-dashboard-folders-and-pinning/index.html)
Organize your workspace dashboard with folders, pin important items, and arrange things the way you like

### A More Organized Workspace Dashboard
Your workspace dashboard is now much easier to keep tidy as your projects grow.
- Create folders to group related workspaces together
- Move workspaces into folders for cleaner organization
- Pin important workspaces so they stay easy to reach
- Pin folders too, if you want key groups at the top
- Rearrange both workspaces and folders to match the way you like to work

### Why This Helps
Whether you keep separate spaces for novels, blog projects, research, or client work, the dashboard now gives you a better way to structure everything without feeling cluttered.
- Keep active projects front and center
- Tuck away older or less active work into folders
- Create a dashboard layout that feels more personal and easier to navigate

### Small Change, Better Flow
This update is all about making everyday organization feel simpler, faster, and more flexible.
