# Lab workspace surfaces

> Learn which dashboard pages exist in the current app and which ones are specific to Lab workspaces.

The current FlaskNote app is more than a notebook editor. Once you are inside the authenticated dashboard, the workspace you are in changes which pages and controls you see.

## Shared dashboard surfaces

These pages are part of the current app experience and are relevant across the broader workspace shell:

| Surface  | What it is for                                                                               |
| -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Home     | A landing view for recent work and getting back into active experiments                      |
| Recents  | A focused list of recently viewed projects and experiments, plus quick ways to continue work |
| Projects | Browse projects and open the experiments inside them                                         |
| Activity | Timeline, version history, and mentions                                                      |
| Settings | Account and workspace-related settings                                                       |
| Trash    | Restore or permanently remove deleted items when your role allows it                         |

## Lab-only surfaces

Lab workspaces add shared operational pages that do not appear the same way in Personal Space.

| Surface   | What it is for                                                                |
| --------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Inventory | Track chemicals, supplies, locations, stock state, and supporting notes       |
| Bookings  | Manage instruments and weekly equipment reservations                          |
| Team      | Manage members, invitations, roles, workspace settings, and workspace billing |

## How to think about the app

The easiest mental model is:

1. Choose the right workspace
2. Use projects to organize a stream of work
3. Use experiments as the notebook record
4. Use inventory, bookings, team, and activity when the work becomes operationally shared

## Personal Space vs Lab workspace

Personal Space is optimized for private work and evaluation. Lab workspaces are where shared operations become first-class.

If your lab needs shared inventory, instrument scheduling, team invitations, or workspace billing, you are in Lab workspace territory.
