# The Dashboard

> Your home screen after logging in to SunLinks.

After logging in, the **Dashboard** is your home screen. It provides:

* **User & System Info**: your username, the current time (UTC), and a live system health indicator (Operational / Unhealthy / Offline).
* **Navigation Tiles**: quick-access cards to the four main sections:
  * **Links**: manage your short links
  * **Analytics**: track visits and insights
  * **Integrations**: connect external services (admin only)
  * **Settings**: application preferences
* **Quick Create**: a panel to instantly create a new short link. See [Quick Create](/sunlinks/dashboard/creating-links#quick-create).
* **Recent Links**: cards showing your most recently created links with their thumbnail, short code, destination, click count, status, and quick actions (Copy, Info).
