# Navigate Around Twenty

> Get a quick overview of how to navigate through the platform and where to take different types of actions.

## The Main Layout

The center of the screen is **where your records live**: people, companies, opportunities, tasks, notes, dashboards, workflows and any other object you created. This is where the day-to-day work happens.
You can **view, edit, delete records** from there as well as **creating new views**.

## The Navigation Bar

On the left side, from the top to the bottom, you'll be able to:

* Switch between your **several workspaces** using the dropdown menu or create a new workspace
* Use the **search bar** (press `/` to focus on it instantly)
* Open the **Settings** section
* Have direct access to your **Favourites views**. Favourites are unique for each user.

## The Command Menu

The command menu gives you **quick access to actions** in Twenty. You can access it in two ways:

  From there, you can:
* Create new records
* **Import and export data via csv**

## The Search Bar

+The search bar is accessible via the Command Menu, at the top of your navigation bar, or by pressing `/` to focus on it instantly. Search works across all objects.

## The Side Panel

When you click on a record, the side panel appears on the right. This gives you a quick overview of the record's key information, without bringing you to another page. From there, you can decide to close this overview or to get additional information about this record, clicking on the Open button.

## Views

Every object (like Opportunities or People) supports multiple views. You're not limited in the number of views per object.

Use the dropdown menu at the top left of the main layout to switch between the different views. For example:

* Use a Kanban view to track opportunities by stage
* Use Group By view to create sections and improve efficiency
* Use filters to focus on specific records (e.g. leads created last week)
* Save filtered views to reuse them later
* Favourite views for fast access

If you're new to Views, read our [Views & Pipelines guide](/user-guide/views-pipelines/overview) to learn how to create and customize them.
