As you've noticed, there are two clear separate areas in the dashboard.&#x20;

In the upper half the list of projects represented by cards. You can edit the name and the description on of the existing project clicking on the card right corner edit icon. All projects are created with the production environment created by default and it's possible to create multiple environments for each project.

1. The top bar, with the user menu and the breadcrumb that tells us in which organization, project, environment and section we are.
2. The sidebar with the different environment tools.
3. The central section where the selected section from the sidebar is displayed. The default tool when entering is the [Release Toggles](/koople/using-koople/managing-release-toggles.md). We will learn about this section in the next section.
