Hi Caty, nice work. One thing I often see is that newcomers are a bit lost with how to use the dashboard -> a link to the documentation about how to use it would be useful.
In addition to this, many users want to edit the contents of the homepage and are lost about how to do it. For instance, what if they want to replace the dashboard with a simple welcome page? I'd like to see this use case taken into account in your proposal.
