Dashboard
When you log in to Cloud V, the first thing you will see is a dashboard. This is where a user can access every project they are involved with on the platform: the ones that they created, the ones their collaborators have shared with and the ones they follow.
The top panel allows the user to switch access between their owned and shared repositories. The default, "Repositories", shows repositories owned by the user.
The default option. Shows repositories currently owned by the user.
Shows repositories shared with the user by other users.
Shows a matrix of repository cards that match the level of involvement picked in the Top panel.
A project card displays a repository's name, description, status, and has buttons to interact with the repository.
If in the top right corner it shows “Private”, this indicates that the repository is private. Only people who you have shared this repository with will be able to access this repository. The repository will also not appear in searches. Otherwise if it shows “Public”, anyone can access the repository and it will appear in searches.
Main article: Repository Page
Allows a user to browse a repository, which is going to display its description and gives you options to interact with the project that are not on the card, including the ability to browse the source files out of a workspace, and, if the user has write access, change the name, change whether it is private or public, add contributors, et cetera.
Downloads a zip file containing the repository's files.
Main article: Workspace
Allows the creation of a direct clone of a repository. One can use this to fork your own or someone else's repository, which can be useful if someone would like to work on a project but do not have access to it.
Creates a new repository.
Includes the Cloud V logo, the user menu (which gives access to settings and logging out) and a search bar.
